    Default Kitchen wall tiles before or after units ?

    I am about to fit a new kitchen, should I tile before or after fitting the cooker hood and units (I will not have any wall units just base units and a couple of larder height floor standing units). I obviously wouldn't bother tiling behind areas which are hidden but I'm thinking about the worktop butting up against the tiled surface - would that be a problem? On the other hand cutting round the cooker hood looks like it could be tricky.

    Fit the units prior to tiling but leave the cooker hood off til after you have tiled would be my advice.
