Our skirting and architraves service in Southport
Matching what is already there in Southport
In older homes the profiles, door sizes and openings are rarely standard. Skirting and architraves may no longer be stocked, door heights are often non-standard, and openings are out of square. We match the existing profile or have one machined, and scribe and pack the work in rather than filling a gap. Post-war and 1970s homes on the western streets, plus a large apartment market near the Broadwater.
Profiles, heights and material
Primed MDF is stable and paints beautifully for living areas and bedrooms, moisture-resistant board belongs in bathrooms and laundries, and solid timber suits stained finishes and heritage matching. We bring samples to the quote so you can see profiles against your own walls and flooring before committing.
Mitres, scribes and installation quality
Trim work is judged at the corners. External mitres have to close tight and stay closed through humidity swings, internal corners are scribed rather than mitred, and long runs are jointed away from sightlines. Older homes rarely have square corners or flat walls, so skirting is scribed and packed to suit - that is the difference between a carpenter and a nail gun.
Sequencing with flooring and painting
Skirting goes on after flooring so hybrid and timber floors can expand underneath, with the expansion gap concealed by the board instead of scotia. Architraves follow jambs being set plumb and square. Filling, caulking and the final paint coat come after fixing - getting that order wrong is why some jobs end up with visible caulk lines and patchy touch-ups.
What skirting and architraves cost in Southport (2026)
Skirting supplied and installed typically costs $35-$90 per linear metre and architraves $120-$280 per opening. A full replacement through an average four-bedroom home generally runs $6,000-$14,000. Prices move with access, the condition of what is already there, how much structural work is involved and the level of finish you choose. We confirm all of that at the inspection and price your Southport job rather than quoting from a range.
