Skirting board is pulling wall off!

Hi,

I'm currently laying new laminate flooring, and have decided to put down new skirting board, to give it a better finish.

However, when pulling the skirting board off, it is ripping all the wall behind out and the red brick is now completely visible!

I have only pulled one board off, should I continue? And if so what is the best way to repair this myself, so its ready for a new skirting board.

Thanks in advance.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean. maybe you could upload a photo? Alll I can suggest at this point is pull with greater caution!
