Flooring & Skirting in Walcot
Wood flooring fitting plus the skirting and architraves that finish the room. TM Carpentry fits laminate, LVT, engineered wood and solid wood flooring and replaces or refreshes skirting and architraves either alongside the flooring or as a standalone job. Most customers buy the flooring themselves and we fit it; we can also supply if you prefer. Available across Bath, Bristol and Keynsham — see the areas covered for specific neighbourhoods.

Common extension patterns in Walcot
Walcot flooring + skirting patterns: engineered wood flooring (14-20mm, oak or walnut) fitted over underlay, solid wood flooring (18-22mm, oak) for the larger villas, original deep skirting (180mm+) replaced in softwood or MDF painted. Most Walcot jobs use engineered wood (mid-range price) or solid wood (premium feel). Skirting profiles lean toward deep Georgian (180mm+).
