Anyone know what this is and how to fix it?

Sorry for my complete ignorance is such matters, but this is the lining between my kitchen floor and the bottom of the unit - after the plumbers removed the cupboard panel - it's some sort of rubber substance.

The second pic is how it should look.

What I want to know is: is it easy to fix? And if so, what product do I need to buy at B&Q?

Thanks

It's sealant.
you need a tube of sealant and a cartridge gun. Examples:

herezs a video to show how to do it.

I'm not sure what the best sealant is for your purpose, take a look in B&Q for something water proof and flexible.

Thanks Seeyounearertime - I'll go to B&Q and get this - and thanks for posting the very helpful video too - your answer is just what I needed!

We have the plinth sealing strip, which is an easier alternative and protects the bottom of the plinth. Another possibility - link to show what it looks like: www.locksonline.com/Plastic-Plinth-Sealing-Strip-for-18mm-to-19mm-Thick-Panel-827?gclid=CJTdk_DVp8wCFRUTGwod-HEOww
