Picking the right product

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 Lancaster: what helps

Finished timber is protected and handled with care; tell us if it needs to go inside out of the weather. Lancaster is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

• If the drop point is block paving or soft ground, say so; heavy pallets and bulk bags can mark or sink.
• Have someone on site for the delivery if you can, or agree a safe drop point with us in advance.
• On busy streets in Lancaster, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

Quantities: a worked example

A 3.4 × 3.2 m room with one door has about 12.4 m of wall to skirt. With 10% for joints and offcuts that is 13.6 m, or 4 lengths of 4.2 m skirting, plus architrave for each side of the door.
