Hi,

I've just ordered my new kitchen and its due to arrive in a couple of
weeks. I'm going to be fitting it myself (with the exception of the
worktop) which should be fun.... The wife is going to love me in 6
weeks when we have a half finsihed, lob-sided kitchen but anyway, I
digress...

The question I have is about flooring. I'm still not decided for sure
but I'm thinking about a tiled floor. I've installed floor tiles before
so no probs there. Gut instinct tells me to rip out everything and fit
the floor over the entire floor, much of which will be covered by
units. The lazy side of me is thinking of fitting the units first
without the plinths, then installing the tiles so that they go under
the units by an inch or so then putting the plinths on so it appears
that the tiles go all the way to the back.

Any potential problems with fitting the units first and floor tiles
later? It will save me a lot of hassle and will mean the kitchen is out
of use for less time if I can.

Cheers,
Dave
