Depends on the time frame…I believe I would finish the paint work before installing the cabinets.
Has a pantry…Why would you measure where the top of the cabinet is going, unless you think the cabinets will hit the ceiling? If you mark that spot you can't see it during the installation.
Just curious as that was the description in the one of the photos.
Nice flat walls - life is good.
Good reason - you have to line up the tops! Thanks for clarifying what I did not understand but have done many times...Has a pantry…
