Default Quick Q on kitchen plinth/floor covering fitting.

Best to do the *entire* floor before you start with any units. This

Assuming, of course, that the floor covering is reasonably cheap and
easy to fit (such as the OP's vinyl). If it is expensive or labourious,
such as stone or slate, then it might be a prohibitively expensive
option. My floor area would go up by around 60% if I went under the
cupboards. I do, however, intend to raise the floor where appliances go,
to solve the problem of extracting them.


Yes - if it's expensive tiles etc, then use something else to level the
bits that don't show.
