We are having a section of wall re plastered in our kitchen as it is very uneven and if left will effect the look of the kitchen floor tiles we will be having fitted. The plasterer said he can plaster right up to the kitchen unit but id rather take the end piece off so he can plaster behind it and then get the piece refitted. The only thing is I don’t know how to get the end piece of the kitchen unit as I can’t see any attachments. Have included a photo of the outside and inside of the cupboard to show you what I mean. We bought the house 7 years ago and the kitchen was already here so no idea where it is from as otherwise i could contact the supplier. Hoping someone on here may know how its fitted.
Taking of end piece of kitchen unit

I would think the end piece has been screwed on from inside the adjacent unit. Generally the screws are hidden either by the shelf or hinges through those holes already showing.
Taking that end panel off would be a nightmare. It doesn't look like a decorative panel. It appears to support the doors and shelves so the unit would collapse if you simply removed it. It looks like a floor to ceiling unit so can you unscrew it from the wall and slide it out.
Your floor tiles will just go up to the edge so can't really see the differnce between that and plaster.
Personally I would just mask it up well and let him plaster up to it as you woul if you were having wall tiles.
