Laurentiu · Answer

If the floor is very bad don't flush to floor use caulk to reduce the visible gap .. if the floor is perfect then yes

James · Answer

Generally yes, but dependent on how old the original floor is, there is always the possibility it isn’t perfectly level and there can be small gaps caused by humps or dips

Paul · Answer

Yes.but if your floor has lumps or bumps on it.a good joiner would over come this problem.

Yes as it gives a better finish and doesn’t then require you to buy trim to go around your floor

Winston · Answer

Yes they should flush and  and be on the same level to get a perfect  finish that makes the job  good

Michael · Answer

Yes the boards should be touching the finished floor but you can get away with a couple of MM. if there is too much of a gap in certain areas the skirting would have to be scribed to the floor
