the component no longer sits level, opens or supports ordinary use as intended. Replace the accepted ordinary decorative surround with suitable joints and fixings, leaving the agreed preparation for finishing.
Signs: the component no longer sits level, opens or supports ordinary use as intended or a practical repair or compatible installation needs a clear product and access review. Causes: ordinary wear, loose compatible fixings or minor fitting movement or an incomplete assembly or a mismatched replacement component.
Top corners and returns need appropriate ordinary cutting and fitting. Show any unusual junctions before ordering material. A compatible profile and adequate lengths matter; filling large mismatches is not equivalent to a properly planned replacement surround.
The base of an architrave often meets skirting of a particular thickness and shape. Include that junction in the enquiry. Replacing one trim element may expose a mismatch, but changing the entire room’s skirting is a separate decision and scope.
Replace the accepted ordinary decorative surround with suitable joints and fixings, leaving the agreed preparation for finishing. Limits: Ordinary decorative surrounds only. No structural jamb or opening modifications, specialist glazing, fire-door certification or hazardous-material disturbance.
