Last Base unit runs out 10mm on end of run

Post by manny »

Hello.. What's the best method to resolve the above issue.

The bottom of wall comes out a bit so the bottom of the unit, 1000mm base unit right side only, touches the wall but leaves a gap at the top.

I can't pull the unit off the wall to align it as this will mean the wortop overhang will be almost non existent.

Do I scribe the base unit back to the wall or do I chop out the plaster(bow in wall) that's causing the unit to run out of line.

Take the plaster off at the point the bottom of the unit is touching.

Either. I'd probably scribe the unit as it's less messy - unless it was an IKEA one with no service void
