Hi,

I am approaching the second fix of a new build and I am intending to have all doors, skirting and architrave painted white. I want to enquire what the best type of wood is for this.

For the doors I want a good heavy sturdy door that is suitable for painting.

For the skirting and architrave someone has suggested that MDF might be the best option as it paints well and doesn't move overtime.

Any advice would be appreciated
