Timber Mouldings
Are you building a residence that’s nearing completion and needs finishing touches like skirtings or architraves? Are you in the planning stage of a job and need to source supplies for the various stages of the build? After all you don’t want to build the perfect home only to forget one of the most important elements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Primed Pine vs Hardwood Mouldings
Primed pine is the most widely specified moulding product for Australian residential construction. It is cost effective, paint ready, and consistent in profile, making it suitable for architraves, skirtings, window reveals and door trims. Hardwood mouldings offer greater durability and are often specified in exposed applications, high-traffic areas, or where a natural timber appearance is required. Raw product is available where staining or a custom finish is preferred over a painted outcome.
Profile Selection by Architectural Style
Moulding profile choice should reflect the architectural character of the building. Simple, flat or pencil-round profiles suit modern and contemporary interiors. More detailed ogee or colonial profiles suit federation, Victorian and art deco styles. Selecting mouldings that are consistent with the era and design intent of the building contributes to a cohesive interior finish that adds value to the completed project.
Internal vs External Applications
Most timber mouldings are designed for internal use, including architraves, skirtings, cornices and interior trims. External applications require products that are specified and treated for moisture resistance and outdoor exposure. Big River can advise on appropriate product selection for external moulding applications, including species, treatment and finishing requirements to ensure long-term performance.
Finishing and Installation
Primed mouldings should receive a minimum of two topcoats of quality paint following installation. Raw timber products should be primed and sealed before painting or staining. Correct priming and sealing at installation – including all cut ends – is important for long-term finish performance, particularly in areas of higher humidity or moisture exposure.
