Tile under WC Pan or not?

[eltommys]

About to tile bathroom floor. 300mm x 300mm ceramic tiles on plywood using flexible adhesive. Do I tile before fitting WC pan or fit pan first then cut tiles around?

looks better if you tile under and saves time.

Thanks for the info. Just worried about resting WC pan on top of tiles and concern with drilling through floor tiles which may break?

noseall knows all on this question.

If you're worried about breaking the tiles then be careful, use a sharp drill bit and don't use the hammer setting on your drill.

Just wanted to agree with these guys. Drilling the fixing holes for the loo will be dead easy through ceramic tiles - more difficult through porcelain tiles but still the right thing to do. Good luck and let us know how you get on.
