Gap between floor and skirting

Anonymous user 3 March 2024 - 3.44 PM

We have recently removed what we were told was not a load bearing, after the removal a gap has appeared between the upstairs floor and skirting, do we fill this?

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Get it checked by a professional. If the walls on the first floor are solid it was more than likely load bearing. But to be sure you do need to seek professional advice
