What Are Ogee Skirting Boards?
An ogee skirting board is characterised by a distinctive S-shaped profile, which features a convex curve on the upper section and a concave curve on the lower section, meeting at a sharp edge. This creates a unique and decorative look, often associated with traditional or classic design styles.
Ogee skirting boards are installed at the base of walls, where they meet the floor, covering any gaps or uneven edges. They are a popular choice in residential and commercial properties and are often used in living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and other areas where a decorative and functional baseboard is desired.
Made from MDF, our Ogee skirting boards are free from natural defects and moisture-resistant, ensuring long-lasting durability. Thanks to their primed finish, you’ll experience a much faster installation process, with less time spent on painting and a far smoother cut surface ready for the final paint finish.
