Hey students!

The bathtub is the basic necessity in most bathrooms. It can also be the most daunting when installing for the first time. I’m here to help you with that. I offer the TUB & SHOWER REMODEL IN 7 DAYS OR LESS course, which takes you through, step-by-step, the installation of the bathtub.

Here are some of the highlights of the video:

 
 

1: Mark the wall studs referencing the tub flange. It helps maintain levelness.

2: Cut out the drain for the tub. Be sure to measure where the drain is going to be as accurately as you can before making the cut.

 
 

3: Tub drain assembly— Hot Tip: Install the tub drain BEFORE installing the bathtub. Makes life so much easier!

4: Protect the plywood/subfloor where the tub is going to be sitting. Add a piece of plastic (i.e. garbage bag) before laying mortar. The mortar is being used to keep the tub in place.

5: When connecting your plumbing to the tub, if you have the access, do it from underneath! It really helps insure a secure connection. Also, add silicone to really make the connection tight!

Be sure to watch the full video for more details and guidance!
