I am installing new countertops, but I need to get my cabinets level first. There is an inch and a half difference between the highest and lowest cabinet. Also, the floors are sloped pretty drastically around the perimeter of the room, so some cabinets need to be raised 1.5 inches in the back and 1 inch in the front. My plan is to put 1/2 inch plywood under any cabinet that needs to be raised at lease that much in the front and the back. Then, I was going to screw 2x4s to the walls in the corners for the countertops to rest on and put shims on the front of the cabinets. The countertops could rest on the 2x4s and the fronts of the cabinets. There would be gaps between the countertops and the cabinets, but they would be hidden by the walls, fridge, and stove. Does anyone have a better idea? The pencil line in the picture is where the top of the cabinet should be.
