Architrave Installation & Doorway Finishing
Door architrave installation completes your room’s look. Perfect joints and clean lines make all the difference between amateur and professional results.
When we fit architrave around doors, precision matters. Swansea’s older homes often have doorframes that aren’t perfectly square. We have the skills to make everything look perfect despite these challenges.
Door frame architrave fitting involves:
- Perfect mitre cuts at every corner
- Consistent gaps around the frame
- Smooth fitting against walls and frames
- Proper prep work for your chosen finish
Many customers update architraves when getting new doors fitted. This creates a fresh, cohesive look throughout your home.

Cost of Fitting Skirting Boards & Architraves
Skirting board installation cost depends on several factors: room size and metres needed, profile type and material, wall condition and prep work required, and height of boards.
How much to fit skirting boards varies by job, but we always give clear quotes with no hidden costs. Our skirting board fitting cost includes all labour, materials (if supplied), and cleanup.
For replacing skirting boards and door frames together, we often offer package deals that save money versus separate jobs.
Typical cost of replacing skirting boards:
- Standard MDF profiles from competitive rates per metre
- Premium profiles at higher rates
- Complex jobs priced accordingly
Every quote explains exactly what’s included so you know what to expect. We can supply all materials or fit boards you’ve already bought. This gives you complete control over your budget and choices.
