DIY Loft Conversion - Skirting & Architrave in ONE DAY + New Blind in the Dorma - GETTING THERE !!

In my DIY Loft Conversion I add some of the finishing touches....Architrave around the doors and Skirting Board.

I bought pre-primed from Wickes which means it just needs glossing once it is all in.

The process isn't long. In fact you can install all of the architrave and skirting in a day if you crack on with it and even add a coat of gloss if you make it a long day.

Here I use gorilla glue with panel nails to mount the architrave. The fiddly bit is the notching out for hinges and striker plates. I used. small Ryobi hand router for this which worked a treat. The panel nails stop gaps being left behind the glue and worked well.

The circular saw is a god send. It makes cutting accurate, quick and for a novice like me, I can cut over length and then just keep paring it back until it fits. Who needs to measure twice cut once when cutting is so easy?
