Woodwork painting in Wednesbury — skirting, doors, frames, stairs and bannisters. Rubbed down properly, finished in satin or gloss, no runs.

On the older Wednesbury skirtings satin is usually the honest answer - it forgives a hundred years of small dents. Gloss is sharper and it wants sound, flat wood underneath it to look right.
