Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the board pre-painted?

It comes with a white primer finish, which acts as a base coat; you will need to apply a final coat of paint or gloss to complete the installation.

Can I use this in a bathroom?

Yes, this board is suitable for bathroom use, though it is recommended to seal the joints to maximize longevity.

What are the dimensions?

Each board is 18mm thick, 195mm high, and 4200mm in length.

Is the wood sustainably sourced?

Yes, the product is FSC-certified, meaning the wood comes from forests managed to high environmental and social standards.

How should I attach the boards to the wall?

You can use a combination of high-strength construction adhesive or mechanical fixings like nails or screws, depending on your wall type.

Can I cut the boards myself?

Yes, the boards can be cut using a standard hand saw or a power miter saw for cleaner, more accurate angles.

Troubleshooting

Board is bowing or warping

Store boards flat in a dry, room-temperature environment prior to installation to allow the wood to acclimatize.

Visible gaps at corners

Ensure your miter saw is calibrated precisely to 45 degrees and use a high-quality wood filler for minor gaps before painting.

Paint not adhering correctly

Ensure the primed surface is clean and free of grease; lightly sand the primer before applying your chosen topcoat.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Classic Edwardian profile suits most decor styles
  • Primed finish saves time during preparation
  • Suitable for use in bathrooms
  • FSC-certified sustainable material
  • Long 4.2m boards minimize unsightly joints

Cons

  • Requires final topcoat painting after installation
  • Long length may be difficult to transport in smaller vehicles
  • Heavy weight requires careful handling during installation
  • Not suitable for curved walls without specialist modification

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed on clean, dry, and level surfaces. Ensure the walls are free of dust or debris before applying high-quality adhesive or fixing with nails. For bathrooms, it is recommended to seal the bottom edge with a flexible silicone sealant to prevent water ingress. Maintenance is straightforward; simply wipe with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust. If the surface becomes scuffed over time, it can be lightly sanded and repainted, as the board is designed to accept standard interior paints or gloss finishes perfectly.
