I've presently got reonvations going on in my house. After installing casings for new wiring, there is usually a small gap between the casings and the wall, which I asked my contractor to fill up with plaster/ putty. My contractor started grumbling asking why am I picking up such small issues, although ultimately he agreed to do it.

I feel it does not matter if it is a small or big, but it does look a bit ugly to see gaps under the casing. Is it not a normal practice to fill the gaps?

it's actually the painter's job. not electrician's job to patch holes.

Care to share with which contractor is that?
