FAQs

A bespoke profile is a skirting board or architrave profile that is specially manufactured to match a particular design or existing moulding.

If you have an existing profile that needs to be matched, we can work from a sample or suitable reference to help recreate the shape and dimensions as closely as possible. This can be particularly useful when replacing damaged or missing mouldings in period properties, where the original profile may no longer be readily available.

Our team can discuss your requirements and advise on the most suitable material, dimensions and manufacturing process. Bespoke profiles may require specialist tooling and additional manufacturing costs, which will be confirmed before production.
