Hi,
I'm getting cork tiles replaced with a laminate floor in my kitchen. At the moment the gas cooker and fridge-freezer both have the cork tiles going a couple of centimetres underneath them so their front edge is on the tiles but their back rests on the wood floor underneath.
When I have a laminate floor put in, the tiles and underlay combined will be about 9mm thicker than the cork that's down at the moment. Will this mean that my cooker and fridge tilt back too much, if I keep the current situation where their front edge rests on the tiles while their back edge rests on the wood floor underneath (so the front of these appliances is about 11mm higher than the back)? Or will the difference not be noticable?
Thanks,
Jon
