Room renovation step process advice

No , the back box has 'lugs' that slightly move .Back box will be roughly 'square' to wall but adjustment will be possible.

Loosen , and give the face plate a slight twist .

If they are just straight swaps i'd replace the socket/light fittings after the plastering then it won't matter too much if the plasterer catches his trowel on the old sockets when plastering around the backing boxes.
So I'd go for 1, 2, 5, 3, 4, 6. If new cabling/sockets involved then i'd go with wallbash's order of service. Messy jobs first, then the putting back together and flooring and other fancy bits that may get messed up last. Sometimes things have to be done in different orders or mixed up...like i had an architrave in bathroom that needed to be plastered upto as it was tight in a corner.
