Common questions Stainesai
The price can be affected by the size of the room, the type of skirting board, and whether old skirting needs to be removed.
Installing skirting boards in a standard room typically takes 1-2 days, including preparation and finishing.
Typically, the carpenter/joiner can supply the skirting boards, but you may choose to provide your own if you have specific preferences.
Installation includes removing old skirting if needed, measuring, cutting, fixing the new skirting, and preparing it for decoration. Always confirm with your tradesperson before work begins.
