Answer:
The first thing you do is make sure you have a camara ready because it will help as you go along to be able to refer to what was there before you picked things apart. Always have people in the photos so you get a better idea of sizes and distances. Painting will be done last, right after the floors. Anything big (vanity, tub, etc.) gets done first because if there is a problem with existing sub-floor, its good to get it out of the way first. Keep good records of everything you buy and do.
