If you’re fitting out interiors and want a clean, reliable finish without the faff of prepping timber, MDF is a smart choice.
At Youngs, we stock a range of primed MDF skirting, architraves and window boards – ready to paint and easy to install. Whether you’re on site or doing up a room at home, we’ve got the popular profiles covered.

We keep a solid selection of the most commonly used mouldings in branch, including:
Torus
Ogee
Chamfer Round
Pencil Round
Each profile is stocked in matching skirting and architrave, along with window board to complete the job.
Need something different? Other profiles are available to order – minimum order quantities and lead times apply, so ask in branch for details.

Why Choose MDF Over Timber?
Here’s what makes MDF a reliable, go-to option for mouldings:
Smooth Surface, Ready to Paint
MDF comes with a smooth primed surface – no knots, splits or grain to worry about. You’ll get a smart, consistent finish with less prep and less paint.
Easy to Cut and Fit
MDF is easier to work with than timber – no chipping, no splitting, no grain direction to fight against. Perfect for quick turnarounds and tidy finishes.
Moisture Resistant Options
Moisture-resistant MDF (MR MDF) is ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, or anywhere with high humidity. It holds its shape and doesn’t swell or crack over time.
Defect-Free and Dimensionally Stable
MDF is made to be uniform. That means no knots, no warping, and no surprise defects. It stays straight, cuts cleanly, and makes for a quicker install.
Low Maintenance
Once it’s fitted and painted, MDF mouldings stay looking smart with minimal upkeep. No sanding or filling cracks down the line.
Cost-Effective
MDF is more affordable than hardwood mouldings and creates less waste. You’re getting a consistent, high-quality material at a good price.
Sustainable and Certified
All our MDF mouldings are FSC® certified – responsibly sourced and better for the planet.
