We have just had a wall treated, tanked and re-plastered due to damp

low. I now have the problem of fitting MDF plasterboard ( (to match the
rest) without causing a problem.
I am thinking of sticking plastic wedges onto the back of the skirting
which are assembled to suit the gap between skirting and brickwork then
using adhesive to stick the skirting to the plaster - however - I am a
little concerned that only about the top inch of the skirting will meet
the plaster.

Any thoughts?

An L shape metal bracked, small part of the L screwed onto floor and the
skirting screwed to the other part. OR
A wood batten screwed along the floor, the bottom of the skirting could
be screwed to this and the top part of the skirting to the plasterboard.
