Default Tiling - before or after basins ?

Well I wouldn't disagree with that, but...
With white cement, it's the only system that you will never have to
re-grout or, more importantly, dig the black crap out of.

Fit / mount the tub, tile the walls and floor, mount and plumb the
rest of the fittings.
No tiles to be cut, except around the tub, and then maybe not.
Do not grout with silicon. Use "White cement". Better still, use the
small thin molded tiles [ 1/4 round in cross section] to seal the edge
around the tub.

Now I would have used that ceramic quadrant stuff 20 or so years ago but it
looks so naff and dated now.
I'm surprised it can still be obtained..
