1. Nice product

   Posted by Jeanette Fakhoury on 24th Feb 2021

   I haven't actually fitted the skirting boards yet as I didn’t order enough so waiting u til I get the others but it looks nice.

2. Exactly what we needed!

   Posted by Dawn O'Brien on 18th Feb 2021

   Having removed old skirting boards from kitchen in our new house, we needed new skirting that was deep enough to cover a gap of up to 20mm around the existing Karndeen flooring that we wanted to keep. We couldn't find anything suitable at retailers, and I then I found skirtingexpress! Fantastic range, great profiles, depth of 25mm, ready primed, fab prices- perfect! Easy to use website. Prompt delivery, well packaged and protected. Very pleased with the skirting we chose. Easy to cut and trim. Only one boat of satin wood needed. Looks great. Will definitely be ordering more skirting as we've decided it looks so good, the whole ground floor should be done to match!

3. Good product with a good finish

   Ordered this skirting times and it’s great to work with. Very impressed with the primed finish when it arrived.

4. Top quality product.

   Hands down the best product I’ve used, went for the primed option and the finish on this was so smooth, my painter was so pleased. The job looked so good the customer had us change the rest of the downstairs! But

5. Just what I was looking for, with a "but" ...

   the room I needed it for originally had skirting board all the way around it. A section was removed roughly 15 years ago when a fitted wardrobe space and bed were installed by a joiner. To get it to fit flush with the wall he had to remove a section of the skirting. We have since removed the fitted furniture as the room was totally redecorated and returned to its original cleared state. This of course, left a huge gap in the skirting where the wardrobe once stood. The depth of the old ovolo skirting which originally came from B&Q was 20mm. It isn't just an issue with skirting express, it's all online suppliers, but it seems the standard depths available today are either 18mm or 25mm. No 20mm. This meant my choices were either, rip the whole old skirting out and have a bigger job on my hands, or go with the nearest size to fill in the gap and do my best to blend it in. I chose the latter. To me, 2mm under the old skirting's depth was the lesser of the 2 evils than the 5mm over. I then did my best to blend in the lines using polyfiller. I'm not a tradesman, simply a DIYer. I'm satisfied with the result. A desk will be going in front of it anyway so you'd really have to be looking for it to notice the difference. But the simple reason this is 4 stars over 5 is simply because there was no 20mm depth option. But as I say, this isn't a dig squarely at Skirting Express, this seems to be the norm across the board (the skirting board haha ..... Sorry ....). They most likely use the same suppliers so if any read this review, consider offering 20mm! Thanks for reading.

6. Job done

   Posted by John on 16th Jan 2020

   Arrived within specified time well protected and undamaged.
   Profile was a close enough match to 1930s pattern to blend in in with but not match exactly to.... which is reasonable given the age of the original. Only very minor complaint is undercoat comes off on clothes and hands but only like chalk dust.
   Recommended quality to renovate old skirting damaged or missing.

7. Good Product Bad Service

   Posted by Unknown on 18th Dec 2019

   I ordered Ovolo skirting and paid for it but then didn't hear anything.
   I waited a week before contacting them and asked what was happening.
   They then said that it would be delivered in a couple of days but gave me no other details. So I emailed again and asked who was delivering it and when.
   I was told it would be Tuffnells but no time. Nobody contacted me again and nobody contacted me from the courier company. Then a couple of days later it was delivered, without any contact or warning. Fortunately there was someone on site to accept it but they are not "Express" and I will never use them again.

8. Used Before Repeat Order

   Have used this skirting and architrave before and am very pleased with the product. Item, delivery and price I quite happy with. Thank-you. Will hopefully be using you again.

9. Nice looking Ovolo eggshell skirting

   Posted by Patrycja Ngalamulume on 24th Sep 2019

   Ordered ready painted skirting which arrived well packed. Once opened there was 4 out of 10 chipped right in the middle of 4.2 m skirting. Must of been packed damaged as it would be impossible for it to chip in the transport. Having not checked the skirting on the delivery I can't complain. Now skirting are up and they look very nice however I will sadly need to repair and paint the damaged areas and I needed all the lengths for my walls. I will be ordering architraves to match my skirting but this time will have to open the packs and check every item as I don't want to find any damages as with my skirting which now requires further work. Otherwise great looking eggshell painted skirtings.

10. Almost Perfect

    Posted by Andrew Watkins on 25th Aug 2019

    Excellent price (half of what wickes charge for an almost identical fully finished skirting board)
    Very Good finish and packaging with no damage, only minor "witness marks" from where the boards where touching. A thin piece of paper between each layer would stop this.
    Overall an excellent item / service from skirting express . Will definitely use again.
