I want to remodel my entire kitchen, including adding ceramic tile flooring.
Is it better to:

1) Remove all cabinets & appliances and tile the entire floor? Then replace
the cabinets & appliances over the new tile?

OR

2) Replace and fix all cabinets first, then only tile up to the cabinets?

Thanks.

The second option is the usual course of events. Depending on which
appliances you're talking about, you may want to run the tile under
them before installation.

99.9% of the time it's #2. At least it is in CA. All the rough work
gets done first incl. setting the cabs, then the tile follows. In the
event you replace the floor at a later time it's a much easier chore as
well. I recommend you tile under the dishwasher before it's installation.

The last one In retrospect dumping the salt OUT OF the bags into wheel
barrow ( clean) spreading around the pool with shovel might of been a better
idea, to bad I didn't think of that.
