Just had a new kitchen fitted, and afterwards fitted a laminate wooden floor myself. I removed the removable kitchen floor plints and ran the laminate flooring underneath the units rather than cutting the laminate around the plinths. the problem is that now the floor has been raised the plinths will not fit back. The plinths need to be cut down but they are made of mdf with a laminated finish over them. The area to be removed is too big to be rasped down, and i've been told that it cannot be planed as there is no wood grain. I've just taken the plinths to a local wood shop intending to have them cut down with a circular saw but they say that it could cause the laminated finsih on the plinths to crack or break. Is this right and if so is there another way to cut the plinths down to size.
