Skirting and Floor Trims in Free State

The main skirting and floor trims page explains the types, the preparation and the costs in more detail.
Decks, finishes & trims in Free State: local notes
Free State decks face hard frost, dry air and sharp afternoon sun, so use hardwood or composite and keep the fixings sturdy. Guesthouse stoeps in Clarens, Bethlehem and Parys are popular, and pool decks in Bloemfontein suburbs like Fichardt Park need non-slip timber. Timber and trims are available through merchants in Bloemfontein, with specialist orders brought from further afield.
Floors and homes in Free State
The Free State has cold, frosty winters and hot summers, with thunderstorms bringing short bursts of humidity. Bloemfontein and the grain towns have many sandstone and brick homes with suspended pine floors, plus 1960s and 1970s houses on slabs. The mining towns around Welkom and Sasolburg have older company housing, and the eastern hills around Clarens and Bethlehem have guesthouses and holiday homes. Skilled carpenters and sanders work out of Bloemfontein, and some travel to smaller towns. Many jobs involve refreshing old boards rather than laying new floors, and heating can dry rooms further in winter.
Typical skirting and floor trims requests in the area come from:
- Homeowners: painted or stained skirting and doorway trims that finish the floor in each room
- Landlords and letting agents: hard-wearing painted skirting and simple trims that are quick to replace between tenants
- Guesthouses, lodges and restaurants: solid timber skirting and stair nosing that match guest room and lobby floors
Local tips for Free State
Popular here: refinishing old pine and parquet in town homes and guesthouses. Ask each fitter about this: ask the sander to check that pine floors have no loose or lifting boards. Where they work from: bloemfontein, Welkom, Bethlehem and Sasolburg.
Around Free State the largest group asking is homeowners, which usually means painted or stained skirting and doorway trims that finish the floor in each room. Before work starts: 10 to 15 mm expansion gap hidden at walls. Keep in mind: frosty dry winters and hot summers: boards shrink and swell through the year.
