What does a skirting board service include?

Skirting board services cover everything from new installations to touch-ups and replacements. Here's what you can expect when you hire a Tasker:

Assessment & Material Selection

The Tasker will visit your property to assess the space, measure up, and recommend suitable styles and materials, such as MDF, softwood, hardwood, or PVC. They’ll factor in room type, damp resistance, and your design preferences.

Installation

For new builds or renovations, Taskers will cut and install skirting boards to precise specifications. Mitre joints, internal corners, and seamless fitting around doorframes and alcoves are standard.

Repair & Replacements

If your skirting is chipped, loose, or warped, Taskers can patch or replace damaged sections. They’ll match existing styles and ensure flush fitting.

Decorative Finishing

Services often include sanding, caulking, filling gaps, and applying primer or paint for a clean, finished look.

Optional Extras

Some Taskers also offer integrated cable concealment, skirting heating system installations, or specialist heritage moulding services for period homes.

We need skirting board and wall panelling installed in hallway

£300

Newington, Greater London

20th Sep 2026

We are redecorating our hallway and are looking for a carpenter/joiner to install new skirting boards and simple Shaker-style wall panelling. We would like the panelling to be approximately 1m high and installed over an MDF backing board, rather than fixing the decorative MDF strips directly to the existing walls. This is both to protect the walls and to provide a smooth, consistent surface when painted. The vertical Shaker strips should meet the new skirting board directly, so the skirting itself forms the bottom horizontal section of the panelling. We do not want an additional horizontal MDF strip above the skirting. There are approximately 8.8 linear metres of wall to be panelled, divided across several sections due to doorways. We have attached a reference image showing the style and proportions we're looking for. We will be painting everything ourselves, so we're looking for supply/installation and for the finished MDF to be left ready for preparation and painting. We have private parking available at the building and a large balcony that can be used for cutting timber/MDF if required. The property is also outside the Congestion Charge zone. We are based in Elephant & Castle, London.
