Question 1

1. What profiles are available for skirting boards and architraves?

Accepted Answer

Timber skirting and architraves are manufactured in a range of standard profiles to suit common architectural styles. Torus, ogee and chamfered are widely used across domestic and commercial projects. These profiles are available in various heights and thicknesses, and can be used with both softwood and hardwood depending on project requirements.

Question 2

2. Can I cut timber architraves and skirting boards on site?

Accepted Answer

Yes, most timber mouldings are supplied in standard lengths for on-site trimming. They can be cut to size using mitre saws, circular saws or hand tools, depending on the job. Pre-primed or treated boards should be cut and finished according to supplier instructions to maintain any fire or moisture resistance properties.

Question 3

3. Can I find decorative mouldings suitable for period properties?

Accepted Answer

Decorative timber mouldings such as dado rails, wooden beading and trim profiles are available in traditional shapes for heritage refurbishment work. These are commonly used in Victorian, Edwardian and other period-style interiors. Matching mouldings can be sourced in unfinished or primed timber, allowing for on-site staining or painting as needed.
