Keep one tub

Buyers often want a tub somewhere in the house. If this is your last one, weigh that first.

  1. 01Drain size

    Showers need a 2 inch drain, larger than a tub's, so the floor is usually opened.

  2. 02Curb

    A low curb is simplest. No curb means lowering the floor.

  3. 03Time

    About a week of work, then glass.
