It's the moulded frame that meets the floor and that skirting will butt up against inside the room. I thought an architrave was a frame? Perhaps I've used the wrong word...

Architrave is the moulded wood strip fitted after the casing/frame goes in and is separate to the frame..

The movie reference was from the 5th Element with Bruce Willis and Milla Jovovich, when they are stood at boarding gate for the vacation space ship. HahaWell I was trying to be funny...but you've spoiled it haha
No, but when I've fitted laminate flooring I've got by with a saw and chisel on wood and it's worked fine. These appear to be an MDF type material so should be easier than wood. I was just wondering about the height to remove but will use the laser level technique.Have you got a multi tool?

Im presuming he is on about a floor not a full bathroom refut , so you would NEVER take the arc of in a house where you are tiling floors, unless the house is being completely renovated .Boggs does full refits so he gets to decide. Same with me
To be fair, no one seems to give a flying broccoli and cauliflower sammich what yiu say sweetcheekssorry but I completely disagree. Suggesting you would never do something is wrong. Sometimes you would leave the architrave on and sometimes you would remove them and replace/refit. It depends completely on the level of refit.
Personally if I was tiling say a kitchen floor then I’d prefer to take the skirts off too and then probably the architrave. That doesn’t mean that on some jobs I would never leave them on. Sometimes I would leave them on. Never is wrong.
I don’t cut the frames at all. Architraves I remove and replace/refit after tiling on all jobs. I find it easier and takes out the guess work.
Sometimes I would leave them on.
