Hi,

Installed LVT on concrete subbase, as I did not want to remove the door frames etc, I have ended up in a situation where there are gaps between the floor and the corners.

It was inevitable there were going to be gaps, you could take up the flooring, or the relevant part, and add underlay.
 
did you fit it yourself or get a flooring company in.
if glue down LVT it should be cut tight
if. Click the arcs and door frames should be undercut and the LVT slid under.
 
I did this myself with the help of a mate, Its click flooring, what can I do now when the frames were not undercut ?
Can I cut a bit of wood /scotia trimming and nail/glue to the frame, paint same colour as the skirting ?
Does LVT require expansion ?

Didn't see the pics before, if you have spare lvt planks, worth undercutting the frames with a multi tool and slotting under
 
Thanks for the comments, as the planks are already laid, how can I do this without removing them all over ? I am looking for a solution that will not involve removing the laid planks, the skirting is on top already.
 
They look to be the first/last row so it would involve removing the skirting. Otherwise a bead of sealant.
