Skirting boards and architraves for Currumbin homes
Whether it is one hallway or an entire house, skirting installation is straightforward when it is planned. We measure the run, set out the joins, allow for door openings and get in and out without living in your house for a week.
Currumbin holds onto its beach-town feel more than most of the coast. Renovation briefs here lean natural and relaxed - timber, light, and a genuine connection between inside and the outdoors.
Original beach shacks near the Alley, hillside homes on Currumbin Hill with elevated outlooks, and family houses through the valley side. Extensions, deck builds and full interior renovations dominate.
Hillside blocks mean sloping sites, retaining, engineered footings and restricted machinery access. Beachside homes need corrosion-resistant fixings and finishes chosen for constant salt spray - both are routine for us.
If the skirting is part of a bigger job, such as new flooring, a repaint or a renovation, we sequence it so the boards go on at the right stage rather than being retro-fitted around finished work.
Skirting installation options
Square-set, colonial and modern profiles
Profile choice sets the character of the room. Square-set and half-splayed boards read modern and clean, colonial and lambs tongue profiles suit traditional interiors, and a taller board generally makes a room feel higher. We bring samples to the site visit so you can see the options against your floor and wall colour rather than guessing from a catalogue.
Filling, caulking and paint preparation
The finish is in the preparation. Nail holes are punched and filled, joins are sanded flush, and the top edge is caulked to the wall so there is no dark line once the room is painted. If you are painting yourself we leave it ready to go, and if we are managing the paintwork it is scheduled straight after.
Single rooms and small jobs
Not every job is a whole house. Replacing the skirting in one bedroom, fixing a section damaged by a washing machine leak, or trimming out a new wall after a renovation are all normal work for us. Small jobs get the same set out and finish as large ones, and we price them honestly rather than padding for a short visit.
Skirting in units and apartments
Apartment work in Currumbin means building access, lift bookings, work hours and noise restrictions. We handle the body corporate paperwork and schedule cutting so the mess and the noise stay contained. Concrete walls also change the fixing method, which we allow for at quote stage rather than discovering on the day.
New skirting board installation in Currumbin
For new builds, extensions and full renovations we set out the whole house at once so heights, profiles and returns are consistent from room to room. Boards are cut with mitred externals and scribed internals rather than mitres on both, because scribed joints stay tight when the timber moves. Fixings are punched, filled and sanded so nothing telegraphs through the paint.
Replacing old or damaged skirting
Old boards come off carefully so the plasterboard behind survives. Where the wall is chewed up from previous removal, water damage or a floor sander, we patch and make good before the new skirting goes on. Replacement is also the point to reconsider the profile, since a taller board often suits the room better than what was originally there.
