The Right Finish for Your Project
New builds, renovations and repairs across Mackay often need the right timber moulding to finish the job properly. At Platypus Timbers, we supply standard mouldings and custom machined profiles when a standard section won't do. If you're trying to match an existing profile in an older Mackay home, bring in a sample and we'll see what we can do at the mill. Beyond mouldings, we also supply timber supplies, hardwood timber and flooring timber for the rest of the job. Call (07) 4954 0144 for timber mouldings in Mackay.

Frequently Asked Questions
A skirting board runs along the base of a wall where it meets the floor. An architrave frames the edges of a doorway or window where the wall meets the door jamb or window frame. Both are trim mouldings that cover the junction between two surfaces.
Skirtings between 90mm and 140mm high are common in modern homes, while older Queenslanders and period homes often carry taller profiles of 190mm or more. Match the skirting height to the ceiling height and the style of the home, as taller ceilings generally suit taller skirtings.
Priming before install lets you seal the back and end grain, which reduces moisture movement and paint splitting later. It also gives cleaner cut lines and mitres on site because the primed surface is easier to mark and finish.
