Default Question regarding Kitchen Renovation - order of installation.

wrote:
When renovating a kitchen using ceramic tile as flooring..... are the
base cabinets installed in place and then the ceramic tile, or is
the entire floor finished first and then the base cabinets put into
place.

How is the dishwasher handled... if ceramic tile is installed up
to the front of the dishwasher, it blocks the dishwasher
in....however if tile is installed under the dishwasher... it
creates problems with the countertop height.


If you don't tile under, the simplest thing to do with a dishwasher is to
set it on wood/ply strips the same thickness as the tile. Unless your
counters are lower than normal, there should be no problem with clearance to
the counter top.
