Would you do this?! Wtf!
Why on earth
 
Ease up slagging the spark's , perhaps the intention was to have floor standing rad covers
Nah your right
 
I'm right in the middle of laying new skirting in my rooms and am seeing this in every single one, what is wrong with people? Is it me, or does it seem people nowadays are becoming quite lazy with zero pride in their workmanship.

Although at the other end I'm OCD with quality so that's just as bad :endesacuerdo:

Just tell em...didn't price for moving no wires, Guv'nor. While plastering might be woman's work these days, wiring isn't.

Should be ashamed of himself anyway, getting a woman in to do his DIY.

Just plaster down to the wires, that's 3-4" below the skirting line. By the time they realise there's a problem, you'll be paid and long gone.

I wouldn’t mind doing something with it if it was more straightforward.

The floorboard is nailed down.

The wires run through holes cut into the floorboard.

The wires are live.

I’d have to take the door and arc off to attempt to prize it up enough (without breaking it) to angle it enough to attempt sawing through the back of the board with f**k all room to manoeuvre.

I have a time frame.

And people should just not to stupid things!!

Fcuk me...listen to you rabbiting on. What you need to do is chisel the board out and shove the wire into the wall. Joiners have sharp chisels. If you have a wood chisel at all, it will be an ancient rusty thing that you got from BnQ and haven't got round to throwing it away that you've been opening tins of paint with.

Therefore, it is the joiner's job. Problem solved. Cheers Ste.

I've said that in one sentence half hour ago
 
Most sparks are shitbags and that proves it!......
It’s only a 5 min job with a multi tool to put right though. ;)

Because you're either not an electrician, or if you are you're sh1t?

Those cables are outside the prescribed safe zones for running cable in a wall. Which means they don't meet the regulations, and whoever put them their is either a moron or a c**t.
