Getting the right 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.
Quantities: a worked example
A 3.8 × 3.2 m room with one door has about 13.2 m of wall to skirt. With 10% for joints and offcuts that is 14.5 m, or 4 lengths of 4.2 m skirting, plus architrave for each side of the door.
Before your Motherwell delivery arrives
Finished timber is protected and handled with care; tell us if it needs to go inside out of the weather. Motherwell is inside our standard mainland delivery area.
- With roughly 7h 00m of daylight in Motherwell around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
- On busy streets in Motherwell, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
- Mention any overhead cables, low branches or narrow gateways, because they decide whether a crane offload is possible.
Planed Timber & Mouldings questions
How should I store planed timber?
Flat, off the ground and inside if possible, so it does not take on moisture and move before fitting.
Do you deliver planed timber to trades and homeowners in Motherwell?
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 Motherwell?
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.
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.
