Help! Quick question about cabinet drawers and tile.

Good morning,

My tile guys are on the way to tile the kitchen and foyer. My contractor mentioned that it would be a waste of tile to tile close to the wall under the cabinets. However, I do know that the refrigerator and dishwasher need to be tiled fully.

Here's my question. I have all drawers. If I don't tile closely to the wall will that show when the bottom drawers are opened?

My new cabinets (install started yesterday!) have a bottom in the cabinet box, just like a cabinet with doors and shelves. Should not be a problem. mq

Agree with maggieq. Do have them put plywood in the untiled areas so the floor level matches with the tile.
