Skirting boards protect the base of walls from scuffs, furniture knocks, and vacuum cleaner damage while providing the decorative edge detail that gives a room its finished, polished character. At McMahons, we stock skirting in MDF, pine, and oak to cover the full range of interior requirements, from quick-finish painted interiors to natural wood feature rooms.
Our Skirting Boards Range
MDF skirting boards - primed MDF skirting in standard profiles including chamfered, ogee, and pencil round, providing a smooth, knot-free surface that accepts paint finishes cleanly and resists warping and twisting in centrally heated rooms. A cost-effective, low-maintenance option for the majority of domestic interior fit-outs.
Pine skirting boards - softwood pine skirting in a range of traditional profiles, ready to paint, stain, or varnish to achieve a natural timber finish or coordinate with other painted interior woodwork. Suited to period properties and rooms where a painted timber aesthetic is preferred over MDF.
Oak skirting boards - hardwood oak skirting such as the Dublin Oak 120x15mm x 2.4m profile, providing a premium natural wood finish that coordinates with oak flooring and stair components for a cohesive, high-specification interior. Ready to oil, stain, or lacquer for a durable, attractive hardwood finish.
Coordinate your skirting with matching Architrave for a consistent interior scheme, or browse our Stair Parts range for complementary oak handrail and balustrade components to extend the same timber species throughout a property.
When selecting skirting height, a standard 100-120mm skirting suits most modern rooms, while taller 150mm profiles better suit rooms with high ceilings or period proportions. Always prime all faces and edges of MDF skirting before installation to prevent moisture ingress at cut ends, and scribe internal corners rather than butting square.
