Fitting Below Skirting Boards
Wood flooring must always be fitted according to BS8201:2011 and wherever possible an experienced wood floor fitter should also be used. This section is for guidance only as site conditions and subfloors will dictate the best method of fitting your floor. If you want your own builder or fitter to install your floor, they must understand that they take on full responsibility for the fitting of the floor and ensuring the subfloor is suitable. For more information or to arrange one of our recommended fitters to visit you, please call 01666 504 015.
We can manufacture Oak skirting boards or Walnut skirting boards to any specific design. Some examples of how we have done this are shown below. We matched the band sawn finished flooring in Manhattan Loft Gardens with a solid Oak skirting because it was only 80mm high. You can also see how you can use our engineered skirting as a stair tread and riser as well. The large one is 240mm high x 2200mm long and 20mm thick with a solid 4mm veneer fumed and band sawn to match the chevron flooring going in the apartment hotel in central Manchester. Please call our team on 01666 504015 for further details and see how we can help you in the design and implementation of your projects.
