    Default Re-tiling bathroom without removing suite?

    Can anyone give me some advice please - as I know nothing about bathroom tiling. I have a very small bathroom, which was new in 1998. I have tiles on the floor, and tiles on the walls from floor to ceiling. I would like to re-tile (well, pay someone to do it, not do any of it myself), but want to keep the same bathroom suite. I am concerned that removing the tiles will damage the bath / sink etc. The floor was screeded (?) when the original tiles were put down, and all the walls were replastered before the tiles were put on.

    I'd be grateful if anyone can give me some advice. Thanks.

    It can be done without damaging the suite...

    Get the basin and w.c. taken out and cover the bath with thick plywood - job done.

    definately remove sink and wc,cover your bath up

    you may well have to re prep the walls again anyway so keeping a sink and wc in place isnt sensible imo
