Default ? about replacing underlayment


"David Nebenzahl" wrote in message
s.com...
Situation: Kitchen floor, linoleum tile over particle board--bad
choice!--why? because the leaky water heater (since replaced) caused the
underlayment to buckle, and it now needs to be removed.

Problem: Underlayment apparently runs under the sink counter.

Question: What tool would one use to cut the underlayment around the
bottom of the counter? There's an overhang over the front. I'm guessing
some kind of "zero clearance" saw, but am not familiar with these.



Aem gave you the correct answer.

If you want to proceed along your chosen course a Dremel or spiral saw
(RotoZip) with a right angle attachment will allow you to cut out the PB
under the cabinet over-hang. I have done it both ways.
