Curvy

Some of the skirting boards in the flat are original and have been restored as I have previously mentioned however there hasn’t been enough for every room and certainly not enough for the lounge. We also had the task of fitting new skirts around the curved wall in the lounge (the turret part).

We decided to get in the experts for this and Dan Barker came to the rescue. It certainly wasn’t the easiest of tasks but he got there with some clever tricks. lots of cuts were made to the back and front of the skirt. The back to take the strain of the bend, the front so that as it bent there were gaps at the front for the wood to squeeze back together. Then…..lots of filling for me. 😳

I’ve added a small video below showing one of the pieces being fitted. Top job Dan Barker Joinery 🔨🪚🪛
