I'm fitting a new bath, and the fitting instructions say that you should, using the two angled steel brackets, screw the bath's wooden frame to the wall. The wall, in my case, is a stud wall. The walls are then to be tiled. The question: to me, it seems sensible to tile before the old bath is removed thus preventing dropping anything into the new bath. Obviously the new bath will have to go exactly where the old bath was so that the tiles line up properly. This'll require good measurements. What are the pros and cons of tiling before/after new bath fitting?
