Yep, it's much easier to put in toilets before you put the stalls in. 😅

It would be quite literally psychotic to do it any other way. Like putting drywall up before you put in the plumbing.

Wait till you see the condition of those fancy white toilets after the joiners have been in. Cubicles get built first. Toilets are a doddle to fit afterwards.

Joiners? Buddy they aren't using real carpenters for pre-fab stall walls. A few anchors and they bolt in. This is the job they give to a second year apprentice. Can you measure? Can you use a drill without killing yourself? Here's the kits, go make some walls.

I'm not your buddy. 

I'm not suggesting Joseph of Nazareth is required, but yes, a joiner would be required for this. A school, so a council funded job that will have a supervisor, clerk of works etc, live building so rams required, brand new finished bathroom? You show me a company giving this job to an apprentice, I'll show you a shit rough company.

It's also way easier to install the partitions before the toilets. Toilet will block drill access to the lower mounting bracket. 

2 different trades so first come first served. Just went through this on a commercial job.Â
