How To Remove a Bath Tub

I could watch this guy all day. Feels like I'm learning from a my dad or uncle, but without all the cursing and yelling. 10/10

I'm a plumbing contractor, I've been plumbing for 32 years and I watch Shannon's plumbing videos . I will concur with everything this guy says.

I had to roll mine foward to free it. There was Studs on both side where the legs are. Your comment on the leg made me realize why it wasn't lifting from either side. Thanks!

Very helpful video. I once removed a tub like this. Stood it up on end like you did. I couldn't get a dolly under it till it was out in the hallway. To get it that far, I simply placed a bathroom rug beneath it, rubber side UP, fuzzy side DOWN. It was easy to slide it out of the bathroom then. Since then I have built a 4-caster dolly from a frame of 2x4's & plywood, covered it with scrap carpet and fastened an old drawer handle to it. Works great for pushing things around the house where there isn't enough space to lean-back an appliance dolly. Also great for moving a piano! Thank you very much for your videos!

Thank you Shannon for all the great advice. Last summer I built an insulated workshop with electricity. Mind you, I had virtually NO experience at all, from walls to electricity to the roof, most of the project was done with your excellent videos. This summer I'll be renovating both my bathrooms and I definitely will be tuning in for more of your excellent videos. Again, thank you so much for all the valuable help yes....my wife is very grateful also!  lol

Nice job! I would suggest stuffing a oversize rag into the plumbing openings to keep things from getting down in there accidently.

I'm about to do a bath remodel. I'm fairly certain my tub is a heck of a lot heavier than the one he lifted.

Really like your videos. Very informative. You remind me of an old west sheriff.

Sure, you can find a new tub for as low as $150, some places even lower. However, take in to consideration the cost of removal and disposal of your old tub, removing a few rows of the bathtub tile surround to get work access, let's not forget removal of old plumbing and possible fabrication to get new plumbing to fit, the list goes on which ultimately equals a minimum of a week of bathroom downtime and at least $2000 in labor and materials. All for a new tub. Now some of us can afford to do such things and could care less about the time however, for those of us that would prefer an easier and more cost effective alternative, Fresh Look Refinishing is here to help!

[adshwartz]

What about venting pipe? Where it is conected to the the tub drain?

[stoneyja]

Lol, great job. I had to laugh on your floor screw up tho. We've all done it tho. Keep up the good work

This is not cast iron. You can tell from the sound it's making when he moves it around that it's a steel tub.
