Just about to start my first project - small bathroom, with tiled walls, underfloor heating and tiled floor. Is it best to do the floor or the walls first?

Thanks
 
Walls first, then you don't have to be too careful.
Unless you intend to follow the bond all the way up the walls from the floor.
 
I like to leave my bottom row off until the floor is laid and then tile down onto it for a better finish though so in the context of your question the floor first.
 
Wall's for me most times, whats the point doing the floor first then walking & standing stuff on potential for dropping stuff as you work ?
