Question about tiling the bathroom now - [View all]

We live in an Italianate clapboard, c. 1880. We're looking ahead three or four years to replacing the flat roof with a third floor under a peaked roof and possibly adding a room over the single story at the back of the house. The roof would be over and the added room would adjoin the current bath room. The bathroom is in desperate need of re-habbing now. If we replaced the tub surround with tile, would we run a risk of damaging the tile during the extensive construction down the road?
