    Replacing shower pan?
    We have a ceramic tile shower with a fiberglass pan in it. How difficult is replacing that pan, and how do we proceed? Thanks

    The tile will have to be stripped away from the top of the shower base and the drain disconnected. The base can then be unfastened from the studs and lifted out. That's about all I can give you with the details that you've furnished. Good luck, Tom
