What to use to seal gaps at bottom of skirting board

[Alison556]

I've just replaced the skirting boards and there's a small gap at the bottom of them - and there's a hellish draught coming in.

What am I better sealing the gap with? Silicone or caulk?

Caulk

Would it not depend on what room they are in?
If a bathroom i'd probably use silicon.
Any other room caulk.

It's the bedroom - and thank you, caulk it is.

Draught will be from under the floor not under skirting so little point sealing.
