Skirting & architrave
Crisp new skirting and architrave with tight mitres and scribed joints — the detail that makes a room feel finished.
About this job
New skirting transforms a freshly plastered or re-floored room. We scribe internal corners properly (mitres open up as timber moves), fix securely to studs or masonry, and caulk and fill ready for paint. We match existing profiles for partial replacements, or help you choose a profile that suits the age of the house for full replacements.
