Product Information
Full details
The Snowdon Timber Pine Scotia Moulding is an essential finishing component for homeowners and contractors aiming to conceal expansion gaps between flooring and skirting boards. Its primary benefit lies in its lightweight, easy-to-install design that provides a clean, professional transition for any interior space. While it is highly versatile and ready for various finishes, users should note that as a natural pine product, each piece should be checked for consistent grain patterns before application to ensure the final aesthetic meets specific project requirements.

FAQs
Can this be used on outdoor decks?
No, this product is designed for interior use only as the pine is not pressure-treated for external weather conditions.
Does the pack include adhesive or nails?
No, fixings and adhesives are sold separately.
Can I install this on a curved wall?
Scotia moulding is rigid and not designed for curved surfaces; it is intended for straight wall perimeters.
How should I store these before installation?
Store them flat in a dry, indoor environment to prevent warping or moisture absorption.
Is the finish consistent across all 20 pieces?
As a natural timber product, some variation in grain and color is expected, which is why finishing with paint or stain is recommended.
Can I use this to cover gaps larger than 9mm?
The moulding is 9mm wide, so it is only suitable for gaps smaller than the profile width. If your gap is larger, consider a larger quadrant or base shoe.
Troubleshooting
Moulding feels loose after installation
Apply a secondary dab of construction adhesive or ensure panel pins are driven into the skirting board rather than the wall or floor.
Paint or stain appearing uneven
Lightly sand the surface with 220-grit sandpaper and ensure the wood is clean and dry before reapplying your chosen finish.
Pros and Cons

- Lightweight material allows for easy handling

- Compatible with a wide range of paint and stain finishes
Cons
- Requires finishing (paint/stain) to prevent moisture absorption
- Natural wood may contain minor variations in grain
- Needs careful measurement to avoid waste when cutting
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation Steps:
- Measure the wall length precisely.
- Cut the ends at a 45-degree angle for clean corner miters.
- Apply a small bead of construction adhesive to the back of the moulding or use fine-gauge panel pins to secure it to the skirting board.
- Ensure you do not fix the moulding directly to the floating floor, as this will restrict necessary expansion movement.
Care Instructions:
To maintain the integrity of the timber, finish the wood within 48 hours of installation. Periodically dust with a dry cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners. If the moulding is installed in high-traffic areas, check pins or adhesive bonds annually to ensure they remain flush against the skirting.
