Default Fitting skirting and avoiding damp

We have just had a wall treated, tanked and re-plastered due to damp
problems. The plasterer was careful not to take the plaster down too low. I
now have the problem of fitting MDF plasterboard ( (to match the rest)
without causing a problem.
I am thinking of sticking plastic wedges onto the back of the skirting which
are assembled to suit the gap between skirting and brickwork then using
adhesive to stick the skirting to the plaster - however - I am a little
concerned that only about the top inch of the skirting will meet the
plaster.

Any thoughts?


Regards

John
