Hi,
I live in a new build and the defects period is about to end soon. The ground floor has granite tiles (or something similar) in the kitchen and bathroom, and the gap between the bottom of the skirting board and the tiles is huge, about 15mm. Picture attached. Is this normal? I'm guessing the floor has settled, but not sure. The company's handyman seems addicted to silicone sealant, and I suspect he'll use that to fill the gap. I have a feeling that wouldn't be a great solution, so can anyone recommend the best fix for this?
Thanks!
