Will the kitchen cabins & Island be installed on top of floor tiles or on concrete surface before floor tiles?which is best to go.
Hi @Samara1,
Installing the kitchen cabinets and island on the concrete surface before laying the floor tiles ensures that the cabinets and island are securely anchored and can prevent potential issues with tile height and alignment. Additionally, it can save on tile costs, as you won’t need to tile under these large structures.
However, installing the cabinets and island after the floor tiles can be advantageous for future modifications or replacements. This approach allows for easier adjustments, as you won't need to worry about matching or replacing the tiles underneath. It also provides a seamless look and ensures that the tiles run continuously throughout the kitchen.
Regarding your build, it's best to discuss this directly with your builder to understand where your units will be installed and the specific benefits of doing it that way.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
