Skirting installers working across Currumbin Waters

Plenty of Currumbin Waters homes still carry narrow 1970s or 1980s skirting that looks dated next to modern flooring. Swapping to a taller square-set or colonial profile is a fast, low-cost change that lifts every room in the house.

Currumbin Waters is the quieter family side of the Currumbin catchment, with larger blocks and long-term owners who renovate to stay rather than to sell.

1980s and 90s low-set brick homes, some larger split-level houses on the elevated streets, and creekside properties. Kitchen and bathroom renovations, flooring replacements and covered outdoor areas are the usual scopes.

Creek-adjacent blocks can carry flood overlay requirements affecting floor levels and material selection. We check the overlay before design, not after, so the approval path is clear from the start.

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 work we carry out

Skirting in units and apartments

Apartment work in Currumbin Waters 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 Waters

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.

Skirting after new flooring

Hybrid, laminate, timber and tile changeovers all shift the finished floor level, and old skirting rarely sits down cleanly afterwards. We refit or replace skirting after the floor is laid, keeping the required expansion gap covered without pinning the flooring in place. Where the floor dips, boards are scribed to follow it rather than left with a visible shadow line.

Architraves and door surrounds

Architraves and skirting are one job, and the intersection at the plinth is where a poor fit shows. We match profiles and heights, keep a consistent margin around the frame, and mitre the head joints tight. Where door frames are out of plumb, packing and adjustment happen before the trim goes on rather than being hidden with filler.

Profile matching in older homes

Older Currumbin Waters homes often have profiles that are no longer stocked. We identify the closest current profile, or have a run machined to match where the original detail matters, so a patched room does not stand out from the rest of the house. Heights, quirks and bevels are checked against the existing boards before anything is ordered.

Why choose Orange Projects

Whole-house coordination

We also handle flooring, doors, cornice, wall repairs and painting coordination, so skirting can be part of a wider fit out instead of a standalone visit.

QBCC licensed and insured

Orange Projects is a QBCC-licensed building company (Licence No. 15620733) carrying full public liability and works insurance.

Carpenters, not installers

Skirting is finishing carpentry. The work is done by qualified carpenters who scribe, pack and adjust rather than force a board into place and fill the gap.
