A few years down the line they start noticing problems, doors not closing properly, cracks in the walls etc. turns out all of the "wooden" surrounds for the doors and skirting boards were down with MDF. The builder used really cheap materials, and this wasn't a "fly-by night" builder, it was a well known company (like Barrets but not them)
What's wrong with MDF skirting boards and architrave? I use these out of preference. Smoother finish, no warping or twisting, no knots weeping through, less shrinkage etc.
Nothing wrong with using MDF for skirting boards, but the builder used it for the door surrounds (think its called the surrounds) the bit that you physically hang a door from.
