Why do you undercut doorways and remove skirting boards?

So the floor flows through the house looking like it has always been there, not like an afterthought.

The short answer

The main reason why we have taken and undercut your door frames is to make the floor flow underneath them. To make it look like it has been here the whole time and not been an afterthought.

What you can see here is the flooring continuously running through three areas of the house, the hallway and into the kitchen, all without thresholds. It continues down the stairs, and up the stairs here.
