  • Aye tongue and groove. I think I’ll probably have to bite the bullet and take the skirting off in a couple places. Main problem is that it looks ancient and will likely make a massive mess/disintegrate into pieces when I try and pry it off. And I don’t fancy my chances being able to find stuff to match. It’s about 10 inches tall!

    Splitting the bottom of the groove off and glueing sounds good. Was thinking of cutting plugs out of scrap to hide some screws too. I might survive this ordeal after all.

    Looks to be torus which is pretty readily available not seen X10 (ten inches tall) torus but x12 isn't too hard to find from a decent lumber yard (i.e. not Wickes or B&Q) so at a push you could buy x12 and rip 2" off it.

  • The stuff in the picture is newer stuff. The original is down the hallway, right at the end of the job - so I’ll see how enthusiastic I am about doing it properly at that point.

    I know who to ask about what type it is tho!
