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.
