Is it possible to do the kitchen measurements after the interior plastering is completed but before the screed is applied? The background is that the kitchen has a delivery time of about 12 weeks after ordering. We want to save time accordingly. At the moment, it seems like the kitchen is the only reason preventing us from moving in.
Our site manager advised that it is recommended to take the measurements at least after the interior plastering. The screed is not that relevant, as the height can also be taken from the plans. What is your opinion on this?

Our measuring service refused to carry out the 3D survey without tiles and installed switches. As a result, we had to live for 6-7 weeks with a basic kitchen sink from a hardware store costing 99 euros, cooked on a single hotplate, and used an old refrigerator bought secondhand, but that phase will pass.
This is possible even without screed. However, it gets tight when, as in our case, a countertop runs into the window with a 78cm (31 inches) cabinet below. It depends on the height of the window. If the screed thickness doesn’t match, it might not be possible to lower it further, and it won’t fit.
I don’t see any issues with the measurements once the plaster is applied. I assume you don’t plan to cover the walls with wood paneling or similar cladding. The height can be taken from the plans and is adjustable anyway. You might need to be careful with potentially oversized door frames or wall-mounted sliding doors when hanging wall cabinets. The door swing direction should also be indicated in the plan. I can’t think of anything else that might get in the way.
Are the electrical outlets and switches already visible?

Can you already see the sockets and switches? They are currently hidden under the plaster. Compared to the initial kitchen plan with the electrician, we have added 2 more sockets. That shouldn’t be a problem. They can simply be cut out of the countertop. We raised the countertop about 30cm (12 inches) at the back and planned sockets there.
