I also don’t use the worktop as a bench unless I am pretty confident I am not going to slip! Sort of thing you have to say incase your apprentice fires a 30mm screw through it😂 Make of this what you will but I no longer lift up dishwashers I actually send them as low as I can and cut a fillet out of an end panel off cut for the top in between the worktop and dishwasher. Surprisingly this means you don’t have to cut as much out of the plinth if any! Crazy how it works but basically the door bottom is then closer to the actual dishwasher door bottom so it doesn’t get thrown as much when you operate it. I noticed once that the dishwasher only interferes with the plinth when it’s being opened and not when it’s fully opened. Never seen anyone else do it but it works for me and great when the is a long view to the dishwasher plinth.

Nice one Dell👌I must say because its a new build I would never guarantee the floor is flat seen flatter in some older houses.Silver tape is the way to go most budget kitchen companies supply it with the package, wouldn't bother with PVA myself once it gets wet it just goes back to its original state, sticky goo basically. The biggest gripe I have with integral kitchens is you have to take the plinth of to get to the washing machine filter if needed, which is beyond most householders Lol👍
@thetallcarpenter
@thetallcarpenter 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Andy🖐To be fair, the plinth section in front of integrated appliances should really be cut and the appliance width and mounted using the supplied brackets so it can be removed easily for filter cleaning🤔but the reality is the plinth gets fitted in longer lengths, partly because its easier to install but it also looks better with less breaks in the plinth run👍I always orient any plinths that go past an appliance so that they can be removed easily, and even demonstrate it for the customer, but like you say, it still can be too much for them😬Hope you are well mate and thanks for watching🤩Cheers Del

Belts and braces. Good job. In my opinion kitchen manufacturers drop the ball when choosing some cabinet material. Any part that has to be scribed particularly kickers shouldn't be made from non waterproof material. I mentioned the shrink wrapped panels before and you said you have them too. I recently did a kitchen where the floor had 60mm of fall on it. I had to butcher the kickers. And within weeks the vinyl all peeled off. I had to replace the lot but this time with painted timber I could Scribe without it falling apart. The vinyl wrap works for doors and drawer fronts you shouldn't have to cut but not for any panels you need to scribe. If a laminate over MDF the kickers should be the waterproof sort. A bit more expensive but well worth it. A lot of kickers die from water damage.

I recently installed a new kitchen with a Cashmere gloss finish. Unfortunately, within a year, I've noticed bulges in the plinths, primarily due to water infiltration, especially under the sink. It seems that the fitter did not take measures to prevent water from seeping under the plinth, and the open cut is absorbing it, causing these bulges. The materials used nowadays seem to be sensitive to water exposure. I've learned about plinth sealers that can be installed to prevent water infiltration. I highly recommend anyone getting a new kitchen installed to consider fitting plinth sealers as a preventive measure.

Nice tip with the foil tape. The cutout is something that annoys me though. I did look into dishwashers with a different hinge just to avoid the cutout. But then I found a tip that said to pack the washer down from the worktop by 18mm before fitting the door. This almost eliminates the need for the cutout. Still might retro the tape on mine.

Hi , nice video, just a couple of questions don't know if I missed it in your first part but what height do you set your units , what tool do you use to get the plinth out again and did you mention to set the units to the lowest part of the kitchen floor . I have fitted a few kitchens but there is always better ways and different ways to do things, thanks for sharing your knowledge, it's like watching a sergueon performing and operation, so neat and tidy
@thetallcarpenter
@thetallcarpenter 2 жыл бұрын
Hi Sid🖐When setting the height for the top of the base units I usually do it from the floors lowest part of the floor, HOWEVER, you need to be mindful of any appliances, especially wine cooler units as these need 880/890mm from the floor to the underside of the work top, so if your lowest part of the floor where an appliance like this would go, then you need set the base unit level from where this appliance will be, and if the floor runs down from here, there's little you can do about gaps above the plinths where the floor is lower. (other than but wider plinths, but this is rare)👍I use a 3mm allen key and a set of grips to pull my plinths off, but others use a small suction puller, which is far better and I must get one👊Thanks for your comment😎Cheers Del

Hi there🖐Whether or not PVA is better than varnish is down to the customer and what they want to provide me with😶 With the cutout in the base top for the sink, if the tops are not properly sealed to the sink flange, then yes, water could penetrate the chipboard, but such a leak would also go on to damage all of the unit below if its not repaired quickly👍I reality, we've not had one leak yet👊Thanks for watching and your comment 😎 Cheers Del

The plastic coating on the front covers the bottom and about 15 mm up. The back is bare MDF. Is it possible to coat the back with a varnish or similar to seal it

@@wardy2002 Yes, the back of the plinth needs sealing so the board doesn't warp/cup as relative humidity is taken in at different rates front to back👍

What if your kitchen units don’t have legs for the plinths to attach to? Person before just glued the plinths in and now they are falling off all the time

Hi there🖐The units must be sat up 150mm on something to leave a space for the plinth🤔

Hi there🖐 Yes, the part of these panels can be cut back flush with the underside of the unit horizontally, and to behind the legs vertically👍

Hi there🖐 I drop it onto the table saw at the right width to do most of the cut, and then finish it into the corner of the cut out with a hand saw and clean it up with a wide chisel👍Cheers Del

Jigsaw with a quality branded reverse cutting jigsaw blade and protect the surface. Jigsaw means you can follow a scribed line rather than only being able to do a generally straight line with a circular or table saw.

Don't you seal the bottom of the plinths where most of the problems arise from water messing the chipboard. I usually add a clear plinth seal strip to stop water going in to the plinth when they mop the floor in my rentals.

Hi there🖐There usually is a clear plinth seal/strip supplied with the kitchen to help prevent water damage as you say, but it wasn't included in this one🤔Thanks for watching and your comment 😎 Cheers Del
