Before you order planed timber

Softwood or MDF trim?

MDF skirting and architrave is very straight and paints well; softwood takes knocks better and can be stained.

Nominal versus finished size

Planing takes material off, so a timber sold as 'nominal' 2 × 4 finishes smaller. Always check finished sizes when you need an exact fit.

Delivery to Antrim: what helps

Finished timber is protected and handled with care; tell us if it needs to go inside out of the weather. Deliveries to Northern Ireland include a sea crossing, so we quote each order individually.

  • Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.

A quick quantity check

A 4.2 × 3.6 m room with one door has about 14.8 m of wall to skirt. With 10% for joints and offcuts that is 16.3 m, or 4 lengths of 4.2 m skirting, plus architrave for each side of the door.

Common questions from Antrim

Why is my 2 × 4 smaller than 2 × 4 inches?

Timber is often named by its sawn size before planing. Once planed, it finishes smaller, so a nominal 2 × 4 is roughly 44 × 94 mm or less.

Do you deliver planed timber to trades and homeowners in Antrim?

Both. Trades can apply for a trade account; homeowners and self-builders can order on a delivered quote.

How soon can planed timber be delivered in Antrim?

We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.

Do you sell MDF skirting?

Yes, primed MDF skirting and architrave in common profiles, alongside softwood.
