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!

Looking for a great Airtasker to repair a skirting board that has come off the wall. The underlying house is not great so I need someone that can work some magic with this to reinstall it. The board itself is pretty good and doesn’t need replacing. It just needs to be re-fixed to the wall somehow please note there’s also a PowerPoint embedded within the board. Job ready to go.

Some water dropped from heating to sub floor, the subfloor has been treated, however, carpet has been pulled up and skirting board taken off due to some mould. Need carpet relaid (we have plenty spare) and skirting board replaced… likely a trip to Bunnings required. Not sure on costs, but will pay for any materials so assume budget range is for labour only. Looking for genuine offers from those who have the ability to do task 🙏

Install skirting boards

Brunswick West VIC 3055, Australia

I have two bedrooms that I am getting floorboards put in. Have removed the existing skirting boards prior to the floor boards, Wanting someone to come in and install new skirting boards. My plan is to paint the boards after installation, so wanting a primed MDF It will be about 3 walls of each bedroom. Total linear metre about 20 metres. See plan I will pay for the skirting boards separately. Cost is for installation labour which includes the installation, filling in nail holes/mitre joint gaps etc, sand of filled areas. The wall is plasterboard i believe. The floor has been levelled so hoping the board will be flush to the floorboards, but if not will need to trim the bottom the board accordingly Hoping to have this done later in the week eg Wed/Thurs/Friday
Great communication and did a great job with my installing skirting boards that were a bit tricky

Fix 2 Internal Doors & Fill Skirting Board Gaps
$100
Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia
26th Jul 2026
Hi, I’m looking for someone to complete a few small handyman jobs in my apartment: 1. Fix 2 internal doors * Both doors don’t close properly and need to be adjusted (likely hinges or alignment). * They should open and close smoothly once repaired. 2. Fill gaps around the skirting boards * There are small gaps between the skirting boards and the wall/floor in several areas. * I already have Polyfilla F20 Gap Filler supplied, so you only need to apply it neatly with a caulking gun and leave a clean finish. Photos are attached for reference. Please bring your own tools (including a caulking gun and any tools needed for adjusting the doors). Looking for someone experienced with general handyman/carpentry work. Please provide your quote and availability. Thanks!
Repair Damaged Skirting Boards
$200
North Melbourne VIC 3051, Australia
10th Jul 2026
Hi, I’m looking for someone experienced in minor carpentry and painting to repair several damaged skirting board corners in my apartment. My puppy has chewed the corners of approximately four skirting boards. The damaged sections will likely need to be rebuilt/filled, sanded, shaped to match the original profile, and then repainted so they blend in with the existing skirting boards. I’m looking for a high-quality finish that makes the repairs as unnoticeable as possible. Please bring any tools and materials required, or let me know if anything needs to be provided. If possible, please include examples of similar repair work you have completed. Thank you.
Darren is an efficient professional full of great advice—the results speak for themselves!

I have a few things that need to be done around our new place after just moving in and having new flooring installed. They include: - Installing about 20 lm of MDF skirting. I'll paint etc myself. There's a few corners (15-20) around the kitchen but they're all right angles. - Plane down three doors that are sticking. - Fixing some shelves to the wall.. They sit on a kicker so it's only to anchor them. - Cutting a few bits and pieces for me including a piece of ply to sit under my shelves, a few melamine shelves and some cork off cuts. Basically I have a few other projects to do once you leave but I don't have a saw! - Installing a piece of timber trim where our new flooring meets our door. I have all the materials.
Great work and really helpful with lots of bits and pieces!
