Bathroom tiling - behind or around?!
I'm about to start tiling my renovated bathroom and was wondering what the
pro's and con's are of tiling behind installations (e.g. toilet cistern & sink) vs. tiling around them. As far as I can see: * Tiling behind: + easier to tile, + better sealing of the plaster away from splashing/condensation + more scope to move fittings/install new fittings without re-tiling - more likelihood of broken tiles when drilling to mount the fittings * Tiling around: + easier to mount fittings - harder to tile - harder to seal Anyone got anything to add / any recommendations on how I should do it? At present I think I'll go for the tile behind option. Cheers, James |
