Skirtings Architraves

Skirtings in Melbourne

Why Skirtings Matter?

Walk into a finished room without skirtings and you will notice it immediately. The wall will drop to the floor and every little gap or uneven edge will be on show. Add skirtings, and suddenly the room will look finished – clean lines, defined edges, no plaster exposed.

It isn’t only about appearance, though. Skirting boards take the daily hits so your walls don’t have to. Think about vacuums knocking against plaster, kids running toy trucks along the edge, or even a chair leg dragged too far back. Over time, it’s the skirting that takes the wear, not the wall.

At Greenhill Timbers, we supply a wide range of Skirtings that Melbourne customers rely on. We stock popular profiles such as lamb’s tongue, pencil round, ogee, and square edge. These are favourites because they’re easy to fit, paint evenly, and look consistent from one board to the next.

Skirtings might seem like a small detail, but they’re one of the finishing touches that make a room look complete. That’s why we make sure our Skirting Boards in Melbourne are always ready in our yard so projects aren’t held up by supply.

Skirting Boards & Architraves in Melbourne – Materials & Profiles

Not every job calls for the same material, which is why we stock a range.

Popular species include:

• MDF: Pre-primed, straight, and quick to paint, which is the choice for most new builds.
• Pine: Lightweight and versatile. Paint or stain it, depending on the finish you want.
• Hardwood: Stronger, heavier, and suited to projects where long-term durability matters.

Common heights include 67mm, 92mm, 140mm and more. If you’re unsure, 92mm is often the safe bet, not too small, not too bold.

Profiles matter too – pencil round or square edge suits modern homes, ogee and lamb’s tongue are often used in older or more detailed builds. Alongside skirtings, we also keep architraves in Melbourne, available in the same finishes and sizes. Matching the skirtings with the right architrave profiles keeps the whole property looking consistent, from floor to door frame.

Because we keep project-ready stock in our Melbourne yard, you can load up straight away whether you need a dozen lengths or a full house lot.

From Supply to Installation Support

At Greenhill Timbers, we are more than a supplier of raw products. Our service covers the full process: planning, selection, and installation advice. This end-to-end approach ensures customers, whether experienced builders or first-time renovators have clarity at every step.

During planning, our team helps determine the most appropriate materials and quantities based on project scale and design requirements. For installation, we provide straightforward guidance on fixing methods, finishing techniques, and the best products to use alongside the boards. While we don’t carry out installation ourselves, our support is designed to reduce uncertainty and minimise mistakes, particularly for homeowners taking on DIY projects.

We also understand the demands of trade work. Tight deadlines and shifting schedules mean materials must be available immediately, not weeks later. That’s why our Melbourne yard is stocked with the profiles Melbourne trades request most often, ready for same-day pickup or arranged delivery.

This balance of trade-ready efficiency and homeowner-friendly guidance is part of what makes us a preferred supplier. Our role extends beyond supplying timber, we help ensure skirtings are chosen, prepared, and installed to a professional standard.
