Removing Soffit Over Kitchen Cabinets

 Camila Farah    

 

Remove crown molding and other decorative pieces. To start off open the kitchen cabinets which are right under the soffit you are trying to remove and empty them in case there is something inside. A nail gun an electric miter saw some furring strips and several strips of crown molding are about all you need to do this project.

Many times the soffit is removed to allow new cabinets the chance to extend to the ceiling but sometimes the soffit is removed for other reasons that leave the cabinets in place.

Soffits over kitchen cabinets or over a bathtub or shower were very popular in the 70 s 80 s and 90 s but today most people just want them gone. Even if a soffit can be removed without disturbing ducts pipes or wiring any cabinetry touching the soffit will need to be at least temporarily removed. This is a great option even for a large deep soffit as it uses moulding in a way that covers a wide expanse. Removing a soffit may cause cabinet damage or necessitate replacing them entirely.

I iove all the extra space now but it was a lot of hard work. One popular way to deal with wall cabinet open soffits is to install crown molding along the tops of the cabinets. Thicken the soffit as a border around the kitchen. Lower the entire kitchen ceiling to soffit height.

Step 1 will be to fix all the walls. We had our soffits removed when we had our kitchen redone after a kitchen fire we put in new cabinets that went up to the ceiling. I want to begin a kitchen remodel project. I have a pretty small kitchen 13 x 11 and at some point the area above the wall cabinets was boxed in which is such a huge waste of space and make the kitchen look cramped.

Crown molding on kitchen wall cabinets dresses up your kitchen with ease. Clearly mark these areas so you know not to damage them when removing the other parts of your soffits. I would like to remove the soffit and open up the kitchen but i am not sure how to tell if the cabinets are connected to or using that structure to stay up. Since removing soffits can create a mess you should use a drop cloth right over the kitchen counter and under the cabinets.

I want to diy demolish the existing 12 soffit above the cabinets then hire a plumber electrician to adjust the wiring pipes then hire a contractor to reframe drywall a new 6 soffit. The kitchen had to be rewired because the wires were stretched tight in the soffits and new drywall put in. This is the best way to go about removing soffits is to remove the surrounding crown molding first. Next you ll want to remove the cabinets.

Disguising your kitchen soffits.
