which first, tiles or skirting?

petewood · 9 Apr 2005

We are tiling a wall in a new shower-room. Should I fit the skirting before or after the tiling?

There are no rules as to which is best but personally I think it is better to tile first and skirt after because if you tile up to the skirting the grout will often crack later on and you will see it.
