Is this a bodge?

Hi there - have just had some Woodpecker parquet floor installed. In general it looks great. However the cutting of the planks that adjoin the wall seems a bit haphazard and messy. I know that it is necessary to leave a gap but here the gap is so large in places that I am concerned it will show underneath the skirting board.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

 

Yep. Looks like he’s made a mess of that

 

Tell him sort it, sack him or get a thicker skirting board

 

You could try fitting the skirting horizontal

 

Oh dear....thats crap!!!

 

Did a builder do it ?

 

It doesn't have to be absolutely perfect round the edges, but it does have to be better than that

 

I think it was the builders dog

 

...with its teeth

 

Thanks for the feedback. Do you think there's any way to salvage it other than a really thick skirting board? It's glued down but there is plenty of left over flooring. Is there any way for a pro to pull up the badly cut pieces and replace with better pieces?

 

It can be done but is a pain.

 

What about something like this? LINKEH

 

You could use skirting and quadrant as well
