Laminate flooring and skirting
 

I have been stripping a room ready for fitting laminate flooring. I have
removed the original skiting and have made good the plater to within a few
inches of the floor.

Question: From a cursory look it apeared that the matching skirting had a
double sided adhesive tape along the top. Should I consider using blobs of
gap filler foam along the lower edge of the skirting?
