Hiya could someone give me a guide to replacing a bath tub with overhead shower to just a shower unit. Please..

Shut off main. Cut out the manifold in the wall and replace it with a diverterless manifold. Are you keeping the tub, or are you looking to replacing it with an stand-up shower enclosure?

This has been discussed here before, but it's not clear that the previous discussions are applicable to your project..

Here's one of the previous discussions here:

I think the biggest possible 'gotcha' will be the size of the existing drain, assuming you want to use it. Bathubs are only required to have a 1.5" drain, whereas a shower need a 2" drain. If the existing pipe is only 1.5", you'll probably have to upgrade it.

I would like to replace the tub totally with a walk in shower. Ps: thank you for responding so quickly.

No problem. You've got some long work ahead of you. Good luck with it.
