Have worked out the lengths of skirting boards (87 metres) and architrave (76 metres) I need but have no idea on pattern or width.
Any thoughts ?
I can get in softwood (for painting) the following :
125mm or 175mm or 225mm skirting boards in ogee.
50mm or 63mm architraves in ogee.
Never done architraves before - there is about £20 difference between 50mm and 63mm. Do the 63mm look nicer generally?
Was thinking 175mm in the skirting boards but never done it so not sure ! Do you have say 225mm downstairs and 125mm in bedrooms upstairs or no difference ?
What looks good ?
Skirting = £398 (225mm) / £322 (175mm) / £238 (125mm) so the whold lot should be under £500 which is what i guessed (plus paint but I have some I think - not looking forward to painting 163 metres...)
House is 1900's granite cottage - no interior style really yet - just all white and have oak doors (http://www.jbkind.com/productdetails.asp?parent=56 (bottom right))
Thanks,
