Thanks for the laugh, I needed that! Looks like whoever plumbed that in has left you with a problem.
Are those pipes flush with the wall? If so I really don't have any good ideas for you.
I think the plumber who is showing expanding foam in a shower knows that the tiles will cover that reasonably well. It would not be good with mosaics for example. I would definitely not work with a plumber who did that but I'm old and grumpy.
Airhead-
Are those pipes flush with the wall?
No they are set back. But not by loads.
Push a chest of drawers against the wall?
TBF there's a sofa covering almost all of it.
expanding foam and then toupret filler has done a more than adequate job
Where my thinking was going and what I wanted to hear
Personally id get larger skirting for this room
I'd like to keep as much of this and match the OG skirting, but I'm not hopeful. Will see what the floor guys say.

What is the accepted method of finishing a wall over heating pipes?
As you can see in this image the skirting would not covet the red boxed section. So how should this be filled in or covered over?
Cheers.
Edit: just seen this "short" (yuck) on YT and it makes expanding foam seem like a great idea for a host of reasons - insulation, ease, getting a flush finish.
