Wet walls blowing tiles

[Sanke]

Hi all
Looked at a job today Customers ensuite shower has been leaking for quite a while and the whole wall is now soaked On the opposite side of the wall above the bath, tiles have blown off (some missing and some moving when you touch them).
Once the leak is fixed and the wall is dry what would you advise doing re replacing the tiles Remove all loose and refix or remove all tiles prep the wall & tile again ????

if your stud work is soaked wait for that to dry before plasterboarding as the moisture will soak into the boards
