Relocation of kitchen so let etc

Timeserved:

Hi all was wondering what you all do when asked to relocate sockets during a kitchen refit, specifically where you have made a joint in an existing 2G backbox which is no longer going to be used?


Do you just fit a blanking plate over, let the tiler tile over or terminate in wago connectors and let the plaster bury the joint?

Neither, generally I pull the cables out of the wall and get the junction box up into the void in the ceiling above working from underneath or maybe install a high level box in the wall above wall cabinets, not just a junction box hanging out of the wall above the cabinets, but set into to the wall.
