Recommended method to fix skirtings

Hi guys,

I have 50 linear metres of skirting boards to fit, unsure weather it will be vanished timber or painted MDF.

What is the best method to fix to plastered brick walls? Concrete nails, nails & plugs or screws and plugs? What size? I tried to hammer concrete nails in as a sample but they just bent.

Also is the going rate per linear metre to install?

Any tips greatly appreciated.

Cheers

:doh:
