My son has just moved into his first (1930s) house and

want to use a bead around the edge, prefering to lay the
laminate under the skirting.

If he ever goes back to carpets he'll (possibly) have noticeable
gaps around the skirting and under the doors.

Just lay the carpet on the laminate surely?

Do not forget, the bodgers put the laminate on the carpet underlay.
