Refurb bathroom where do you start?

You upgrade the consumer unit, obviously if yours isn't rated high enough. Thought it was a bit OTT to state the obvious, but clearly some people need it...
Personally (and we've done this a lot with our builders and plumbers recommendations: all get very high ratings on MyBuilder and SafeLocalTrades so know their onions) we tile first completely when installing a WC, basin and shower. We've not done this with a bath. But it depends on your finish. Nothing has ever flooded, but we don't skip on labour nor installations, we are only interested in top quality. 15 years have passed for our en-suite and it's still perfect, water tight and looks as good as when when installed. However I can see the benefit for double sealing with a bath, and tiling afterwards.
How very egregious of you; incorrect assumptions at every corner. Fourtunately I'm a teacher, not that it's any of your business, but we've done up enough houses to know how to do things.
I wonder if the people who spend time being agressive on forums actually have a real life, or live a fantasy on-line - goodness how exciting it must be for you.
Have to dash, class of sixth formers baiting for knowledge.

Well done for advising people to overload there electricity supply, create damp, deterioration & possible flooding problems to their properties whilst stating it as fact.

You must be very pleased.

Another vote for shower tray in, bead of silicone between wall and tray then tile.
