Hi there
I need some advice please. I am planning on having some alcove cabinets made to fit either side of an upstairs chimey breast. Something like this:

The cabinets would have a back panel and I thought this would then sit flush against the wall, if you see what I mean. But I am now wondering whether this could be a problem because the walls are exterior walls (the house has cavity walls) and whether there could be the potential for damp issues between the back of the cabinet and the wall. Or am I worrying about nothing?
I hope this makes sense!
