Hi,
i've installed my kitchen base cabinets, and because the walls aren't straight, the bottom edge of the cabinet is on the wall, but the top / back edge of the cabinet is not level with the wall, which means when securing it to the wall, i had to put some plastic packers behind the cabinet as i had to ensure that the base cabinet remains level. If i didn't use packers, then it would have pulled the cabinet out of level on the front and top edge of the cabinet when drawing it back to the wall.
The gap between wall and back of cabinet is approx 1cm.
Will this become an issue when installing the worktop? ie. will it look stupid if there isnt any overhang / not much overhang? I'm getting a joiner to do the worktop. I just want to be sure that the way i have installed the base cabinets is correct?
thanks
