Laying floor before wall

[Steffeluring]

Hello!

Planning to renovate the kitchen where a wall about 2 meters wide will be built in the middle of the kitchen for tall cabinets, etc.

I'm considering whether to lay the floor first (laminate flooring) and then place a beam on the floor, mark about 1/2 to 1 cm around the beam, and then cut out the floor with the multi-cutter. It seems like this could save a lot of time and trouble when laying the floor since the rest of the kitchen is a large area without obstacles. Could also move the beam slightly to avoid getting too close to a seam.

Also wondering how you usually handle under the base cabinets, build under the entire thing or just go a few cm under the cabinet plinth?

Best regards, Stefan

I am considering whether to lay the floor first (laminate floor) and then place a stud on the floor, mark around 1/2 to 1 cm around the stud, and then cut out the floor with the multi-cutter. It feels like this can save a lot of time and trouble during floor laying since the rest of the kitchen is a large area without obstacles.

It works fine to do as you think.

Either way works, it's enough to lay the floor so the plinth covers the ends.
