Brilliant idea.
Remove the only shower that works well - not to be confused with the shower that leaked. That one is in the house, this one's in the carriage house. (See shower through door in picture.)
Are we nuts?!
We're going to do it anyway. We're going to turn the full bath in the carriage house into a half bath. There's not much plumbing work to be done. Just remove the tub/shower and move the sink to that location. Easy peasy.
Yeah, right.
That tub was the bane of my existence for a day. Advice from several contractors was just to take a 10 pound sledge hammer and break it up.
The first whack shattered the porcelain, but didn't dent the cast iron. My heart sank. Now it's not longer usable and it's still too heavy to move.
Whack!
Whack!
Whack!
After an eternity, it finally cracked. Whew! Another hour of breaking it into pieces light enough to move and I was done. Plenty of exercise for the day and no cuts from the shards of porcelain flying everywhere.
Oh yeah, and now we're re-tiling the bathroom...
