Browse Forums Building A New House Re: Vinyl plank flooting - loose lay 2Nov 13, 2017 12:30 pm We had to pay our builder to raise our skirting so we can put planks under it - otherwise they just put it on and you have to have ugly scotia bead everywhere. If your builder will just add it after you are laughing, but I'd be speaking to them ASAP.

I think have the skirting put on after would still achieve a better look.
