Late Victorian Skirting - UK stockists

[normpa]

I have been looking for some Victorian style skirting board for a house in London - I know a lot of the skirting of this type was constructed using different pieces of timber and the design simply built up but I was hoping to find a supplier in the UK who manufactured the complete design in MDF.

I am looking for something similar to SK-882/3 on the web page below but for some reason can only find stockists in Australia

Does anyone know of a supplier in the UK for this type of moulding ?

Thanks

We had a house fire in london about 3 years ago, and needed new skirting similar to the one you refer to. The contractors who were dealing with the refit told me they had to have the boards machined up specially - (costs about £40 to set the cutters up then about £30 per metre, but this was a few years ago and on insurance money, if you catch my drift) so it looks like this may be your best option.

Click on the timber & mouldings brochure on this page then select skirtings, not far off what you linked to
