What is the sequence of events for a kitchen project?
Installation of the cabinets varies somewhat on whether it is a remodelling project or new construction. In either case all of the rough plumbing and electrical are done and finish plaster has been dry for at least a week. Usually the finish floor has been installed. The cabinets are then installed plumb and level, scribing them to fit any irregular surfaces, making sure all appliance will fit as planned. Templates are made for countertops to be fabicated off site, and installed (depending on type) approx. 7 – 10 days later. During that time trim work is done, finish painting, then the finish electrical. Once the countertops are in, the appliances are installed and the sink hooked up. When the coordination of all the sub contractors is done properly, and everyone does their job, it goes very smoothly. Having a reputable contractor and sub contractors are key to getting excellent results.
