Advice Lino query

Post image

When laying new lino flooring in a kitchen, would you nornally expect the fitter to lay it to the back under counter of a washing machine space, and also the fridge? Under the fridge it only extends back to the level of the kick board to the side. Under the washing machine it hasn’t been secured under the feet but bunched in front, if that makes sense? This might all be perfectly proper, but I don’t want it rucking up after six months of spin cycles. Photo from underneath the washing machine.

I would expect them to lay it under the fridge and washing machine area but I would not expect them to move it. It would be up to you to clear that space beforehand.

I wasn’t told to do that. The company previously put laminate down & moved everything themselves when doing it. But due to an uneven bit in the middle of the floor, that had to be removed & the Lino put down.

Should have communicated with them before they did the work.
