        False. By installing the wall tiles first water running down the wall can penetrate to the underlying costructions

        It is not iron clad.

        Did they say it was in the shower? No.

        As long as you have your cuts done evenly, to me it's better to do the walls first, because you're not walking on freshly tiled/grouted floors.

        I just rechecked a couple of sites and they say the same thing.
