Im re doing my bathroom.

Getting new bathroom suite put in. Its very small and a shower put over the Bath with Screen.

I am gonna put the plastic cladding all around the bath and most likely the entire room.
Am not sure in what order things have to be done.

I think the plumber will have to come and remove my old stuff, leave marks where pipes will be coming from, as the cladding will be going over the top and need holes cut out.

Then the cladding fitted, for the plumber to return and fit the suite.
Is this right, as it will mean being done on seaparate days.

Is the cladding easy to fit and cut accordingly.

Especially as i want to put the Cladding on the Ceiling and unsure about the the lighting bit.

does the cladding and the ceiling have to have holes cut out already before the lights are put on. or can cladding be fitted, then the slots cut out when in place. for the lights to be added.

Im not sure what lighting would be best. one main in centre of room like this

or spotlights all over the ceiling.
