One reason why homeowners may want to paint the walls first is that they fear dripping or smearing paint on their newly finished floor.
Finish walls or tile floor firsr.
And then finish by installing that final row of wall tiles so that it overlaps the floor properly.
I also install the wall tile so it goes over the floor tile at the edges i think that was also one of your questions.
To build the walls first then the subfloor.
It seems to me that it would be much easier to lay down the entire subfloor and then place framed 2x4 walls on top of the floor there would be just as much.
Make sure that you coordinate the metal finish to the surrounding metals however.
They are a great way to transition between tiled and non tiled surfaces.
And let that dry.
You can use them on all sorts of tiled surfaces including counters showers floors walls and stairs.
There is a possibility that the walls or trim may be damaged by the installation of the flooring.
If you paint first and then do floors there is a good chance that a lot of dirt dust sawdust or tile stone dust will end up on your freshly painted walls and trim.
Removing and replacing flooring or carpeting is dirty work.
If you do the walls first starting from a straight edge by the time you get to the top you can generally take the straight edges off and finish the wall and floor tile in the same day.
Edge tiles with metal trim for a contemporary finish.
Floors are expensive and difficult to fix but the walls are not.
Meanwhile install your floor tiles to the wall.
Start with your floors because it s much easier to cover your floors with protective coverings than to try to attach plastic sheeting or painter s cloths to the walls in the entire room.
