Is it ok to install kitchen cabinets in front of baseboard heating? Is it code?
I have baseboard heating running along most of my kitchen and I need to install cabinets. I have no choice but to put the cabs right up ageainst the baseboard.
The only alternative is to get central air installed, and that just isnt going to happen.
Also, Having a plumber move the pipes are out of the question.
Does anyone know whether plumbers are charging a high flat fee vs an hourly rate?
A plumber I recently used told me mostly all of them are now charging a flat fee because of the gas prices. I think I was badly cheated. Duh. I paid $800.00 to have a kitchen faucet and a garbage disposal put in. His flat fee was almost $300.00. He also had to replace the small pipe or trap located by the garbage disposal.
