hi guys welcome to daddicated and in this video I'm going to show you how to demolish a shower
so I'm doing a series on this bathroom remodel and the first step is to tear all this down and
replace it with cement board so let's begin so as you can see the first step would be to get
rid of all your personal items in the shower next is to take take some rack and protect
your tub if you're gonna keep it I'm gonna be getting into my tub and converting this into a
shower but I still want to put this in there so I can protect the drain and anything falling it
should be easier to clean up using this this rag this is a painters rag that I have and
I'll have the links in the description below so I'm gonna start with this window because I want
to save this window sill right here because it's fairly nice so I'm gonna carefully undo
the window that way I know I don't damage it when I'm gonna be removing these plates
so I started using a flathead screwdriver to get started and then switch to a pry bar
but you can use a chisel or any other tool that you think might be using your do this
messy but it's impact so it's a good idea to cut all the edges these edges right here
on both sides on this side and on this side that way you're not tearing into your paint
and you're not gonna damage your drywall but you're only taking out the shower section so
take a knife and just cut along those edges so I started again around the window and kind
of going forwards and once you get rid of some of tile you need to start taking it as a whole
with the dissonant chord included but it's much easier to take it take it off as a headpiece
and all the nails certain locations and nails hold up
next clean up the tub so that way we can get it out
next remove the bathtub if you want to see with a full video of how I remove the drains to get the
tub free click on the cards from the top right corner so right away I noticed this is this was
