Removing an old, large claw foot tub

[murielm99]

9. I live in an old farmhouse.

When we removed ours, we had to take off part of the outside wall in the upstairs bathroom. We brought the new tub and shower in that way, too. Then we put the wall back. If the bathroom has an outside wall, this might work for you, too.

The work we did upstairs was often frustrated by the steep, narrow staircase. We have replaced the stairs with more modern, safe stairs, but it is still steep. Getting a queen sized bed up there was interesting. Getting any furniture upstairs requires much measuring and forethought.
