I didn't say there was no capping. What is capping, and how do I spot it? Roy C has the right idea. Pay for a plasterer and no hassles ! In other words, back to square one.

Again apologies for appearing dense. But I am going off what happened recently when I had some rewiring done in the house. Some of the skirting board was destroyed when they had to drill holes to put the wiring in. Can you please tell me what you mean by "The wires should be covered by...

Thank you. I am completely new to this, so need a guiding hand and you'll have to be patient with me. Basically there are 2 walls involved, in which there are long, slim cavities into which the wiring has gone. These cavities need covering up. There are also holes in the skirting board...
