Why Skirting Board Matters

Skirting board does more than sit quietly along the bottom of your wall. It:

  • Covers the join between your wall and floor
  • Protects your walls from scuffs, knocks and furniture damage
  • Brings extra definition and design to your space
  • Ties the look of your room together

All our skirting comes in both moisture resistant MDF and solid timber options, with various heights and thicknesses to suit the scale of your space.

Most Popular Skirting Styles

Each profile has its own personality, from contemporary and understated to classic and ornamental. But, choosing the right skirting profile goes beyond aesthetic appeal. Additionally, you need to settle on a design that works with the proportions, style, and function of your space.

Here’s a closer look at the most in-demand skirting options – and what makes each one a solid choice for many and varied DIY projects at home, an office, or a retail space:

Torus Skirting Board

  • A classic, curved profile with a smooth, rounded ridge
  • An ideal match for traditional homes, or for introducing a heritage twist to modern properties
  • Works well with both white walls and strong contrast colours
  • Available in a choice of sizes to suit your space


Why choose Torus skirting?
It’s stood the test of time – over 400 years, in fact – and adds instant character. A safe, stylish choice if you’re unsure where to start.

Ogee Skirting Board

  • Features an elegant S-shaped wave effect for a more decorative finish
  • Multifaceted for period homes, feature walls or traditional spaces alike
  • Evokes depth and shadow lines to walls for an eye-catching touch of drama


Why choose Ogee skirting?
It makes a statement without being over the top, pairing beautifully with detailed architrave for a cohesive, high-end look.

Bullnose Timber

Bullnose Skirting Board

  • Clean, rounded edge with a soft curve – simple and modern
  • A go-to for minimalist interiors or family homes where practicality is key
  • Easy to wipe clean and maintain

Why choose Bullnose skirting? Bullnose is the height of versatility for any room, integrating superbly with most interior styles, from ultra-modern to farmhouse rustic.


Lambs Tongue
Skirting Board

  • Subtle curved edge with a modern variation
  • Looks sleek and smart without being plain and mundane
  • Works equally well in traditional homes and new builds

Why choose Lambs Tongue skirting? It’s functional, understated, and you can team it with Lambs Tongue architrave for style consistency from floor to doorframe.

Architrave to Perfectly Complement Your Skirting

Architrave is an interior moulding that frames doors, windows, and other openings. But what’s the point of it? That’s a brilliant question with multiple answers. It:

  • Cover the gaps where walls meet frames
  • Conceals any movement or shrinkage
  • Adds a clean, decorative finish

 

The concept dates back to classical architecture in Greek temples. It evolved over time into the architrave we now use in homes, offices and retail spaces, blending function and form in both traditional and modern interiors.

 

Discover matching architrave in all our core skirting board styles. There’s a profile to suit, whether you’re going for subtle or standout.

Choose the Right Material

Our skirting comes in a choice of MDF and solid wood:

MDF

  • Cost-effective option
  • Crisp, clean, smooth finish, easy to paint
  • Moisture resistant options available
  • Doesn’t warp or split like natural wood
  • Ideal for contemporary homes and high traffic areas


Solid Wood

  • Natural grain, ideal for staining or varnishing
  • More durable over time, can be sanded and refinished
  • Great for traditional homes or spaces where character is called for
  • Easily colour matched if you’re working with existing woodwork
  • Adds a warmer, more organic feel to any room or workplace
