Installing new bathroom suite and wall tiles.

Post by paul1968uk »

Hi

Which job should we complete first please? We are ripping out the old bath etc. and taking all the old wall tiles off and starting again. But should we put the new wall tiles up first, then install the bathroom or vice versa? Many thanks.

Take as many tiles off before taking out the bath, toilet and then you have use of it. Depending how big bathroom is, of course, or whether you also have an ensuite (or two).

Normally the bath will go in first, shower tray in first and then tiling complete and then fit basin and toilet.
