Tile behind or onto bath?

[Raccus]

ok, thank you very much for replies and good points, ill tile down onto the bath 🙂

An additional thought, was going to tile under the bath, or rather the whole floor so its complete before installing bath, allowing for drainage and pipe work. Any reasons not to do this?

Apart from wasting a sqm if tiles, adhesive, grout and backer board that won’t be seen if the bath isn’t freestanding, not really.

ok, the reason was to assist in waterproofing the floor better, so IF water got under it, it wouldnt go straight through to downstairs ceiling
