Hi folks,
When it comes to tiling on concrete bathroom floors is it best practise to tile and then sit the toilet on the top of them or fit the toilet first and then tile around the base?

I would tile the floor then fit the toilet on top, I have done this to my two bathrooms. Any water leaks will then pool on top of the tiles.
