Timber mouldings
Love your mouldings! But what are they?
Ever wondered what makes a real difference to an interior? It’s all down to the detail. ‘Timber Mouldings’ is a collective name for decorative pieces of wood that are shaped to provide a decorative or architectural feature. At Laver, these range from practical uses such as skirting to cornicing where edges meet, or aesthetic such as dado rails which divide up a wall expanse for a designed or period look. Our range of mouldings is extensive, made in hardwood, softwood, or MDF, we also provide a range of finishes and profiles. What’s a profile? The profile means the shape that the mouldings are made in as you look at them from the side-on. Who knew a profile can make such a difference! .
Why do we need timber mouldings?
These fantastic items are integral to an interiors finish. Look around you. They are everywhere and give every interior a finished look. Practical and often beautiful. Mouldings are perfect for covering areas such as gaps where surfaces need to meet (hard floors and walls), mouldings add detail such as architraves around a door or window, and aesthetic elements to assign a look to a room.
Hardwood and softwood timber mouldings
Now here’s a test. Think you know your mouldings? These include skirting, plinths, architraves, door casings, linings, window boards, dado and hand rails and beading. Did you get all of these?
We have 120 mouldings’ products available which we make in our own mills. Our in-house experts will be able to advise you on the moulding you need. We’ll also help on the finish you’re after.
