Kitchen Soffit. I wanted to see some feedback on its removal and if the can lights or hanging lights would look best from the ceiling once soffit is removed. The Home Mender shows us how to remove kitchen cabinets, a kitchen soffit from a ceiling, install new drywall and apply new tape and mud.
A wide variety of soffit options are available to you, such as type. Commonly, they fill the space between the tops of upper kitchen cabinets and the ceiling. While we had the dining room finish work done we had them complete the kitchen soffit as well.
Kitchen cabinet soffits are box-like structures built below the ceiling and above your cabinetry to hide the inner workings of your home, such as wiring and pipes.
A soffit is simply a portion of the ceiling that has been built lower than the area around it.
Although they aren't as popular today, soffits were quite common in the kitchens of older homes, like this one. Usually cabinets are nailed or screwed to studs through the back. Build a perimeter soffit in the kitchen to add dimension to upper cabinets.
