What does a skirting board service include?

You can request for skirting board fitting and repair right here on Airtasker. Our experts take care of buying the skirting boards and bringing the necessary tools for the job. You can also opt to get these yourself and just book this service to take care of the actual labour. 

The exact details of what a skirting board expert can or can’t do may vary. That’s why it’s best to make your task post as detailed as possible. This helps potential Taskers evaluate your request better and come up with a suitable offer. 

In general, here’s what you can expect when you book a skirting board service via Airtasker: 

Skirting board materials and tools

Just like with any other construction job, you’ll need materials and tools. Your tradesman takes care of buying the skirting boards, depending on what you specified in the task post in terms of length and height. In case you don’t have anything in mind yet, they may stop by your location first, do a bit of measuring, then go to your local hardware. 

They also arrive with the necessary tools in tow. These include a coping saw, ear muffs, safety glasses, a nail gun, a tape measure, and a hammer. If you already have some of these materials at home, you could ask your tradesman to bring only the ones that aren’t in your toolbox. It all depends on your preference and what your skirting board service requires.

Fitting or installing skirting boards

Your tradesman begins by measuring each part of the wall and marking the skirting boards. They’ll cut the boards at 45-degree angles, then cut the scribed joint. The scribed joint makes sure that the boards line up nicely at the corners of the room.  

Then, they cut the skirting board at 90-degree angles on both ends and start attaching it to the wall. They’ll take the board with the scribed joint, cut it to size, then push it against this first skirting board. Once they’re happy with the fit, your tradesman attaches it to the first board.

After that, it’s pretty much the same process all around the room - or every room in your house.  

Redoing skirting boards

Skirting boards protect your wall from wear and tear, so you’ll inevitably have to redo them after years of living in your home. This process is pretty much the same as installation, except that your tradesman has to remove the current skirting boards first. This involves removing any cables or obstructions, breaking the plaster, removing the skirting boards, and getting rid of nails and screws. It’s a rather tedious process, so it’ll take longer and possibly cost more compared to starting in a bare room.

Working with skirting boards can get pretty messy, so it’s advisable to get after-builders cleaning to tidy up your house afterwards. Don’t tire yourself picking up after your handymen or construction workers - get cleaning experts to do it instead!

Remove Quarter Round & Replace Skirting Boards / Architraves

$300

Colonel Light Gardens SA 5041, Australia

22nd Aug 2026

We’re looking for an experienced handyman or carpenter to do some updating/repair work in the original part of our older home. The job involves: * Removing the existing quarter round throughout the original part of the house. * Removing and replacing skirting boards that are too damaged or dinged up to keep. * Replacing damaged architraves and door surrounds/frames where needed. * Matching the existing profiles/styles as closely as practical. * Cutting and fitting everything neatly, including corners and joins. * Leaving the timberwork ready for painting. * Taking away/disposal of the old quarter round and any other removed materials. There are quite a few areas to work through, and we’d like someone with a good eye for detail who is experienced with older homes and finish work. You don’t necessarily need to be a qualified carpenter — an experienced handyman with good carpentry/trim skills would be suitable. Please include examples/photos of similar work you’ve completed and your availability. For the purposes of this ad, I’ve just included a small fee for some initial work, with the intention that further work and payment and negotiated on site.

Reinstall existing pre-cut skirting boards

$300

Seaford Heights, South Australia

9th Aug 2026

Reinstall existing pre-cut skirting boards Looking for someone experienced with skirting installation to reinstall existing skirting boards following new flooring installation. The skirting has already been removed, cut to size and numbered for each location, so this is primarily a refit/reinstallation job rather than a new skirting installation. There may be a few mitres that need minor adjustment for a neat fit. The flooring area is approximately 100sqm, however skirting is not required to all walls/areas. Looking for someone who can work neatly and ensure nails/fixings are driven into the correct locations and the skirting is securely and cleanly fitted. No filling, painting or skirting supply is required. All skirting is onsite and ready to reinstall. Please bring the appropriate tools and nailer.

In order to fit my fridge into the space, need some help to: - Remove skirting board on the sides of fridge cavity. ( fridge is 880mm, fridge cavity including skirting board is 900mm) - Either build a small cabinet on top of fridge OR shorten the existing one OR move the cabinet higher. The existing cabinet has been removed but can be reused. The existing cabinet is only a few centimeters long. We were told the hinge mount could be tricky to remove since it is stick to the cavity right now( see photo) - paint the cavity if needed and move the fridge in. Please quote for labour only. Ideas welcome!

Tony helped us changed the height and depth of our fridge hole and build the ikea cabinet. Amazing job he has done.
