Homeowner with a decent amount of handiness but wondering if I’m going to bite off more than I can chew. Is it worth it to try and remove the old shower tub combo and replace it with a new one pretty much by myself? I realize this is a bit of a loaded question and can’t really be answered without knowing my skills but if...
The step that has me most worried is setting the drain properly. Everything else seems more or else something I’ve done before (leveling the floor and securing the tub)
There’s a soft spot in the floor of the tub now and I’m afraid of what’s under it and that I won’t be able to fix it and then we’ll be out of a shower.
I can get some extra hands for lifting but mainly it’d just be me. How long did yours take? It’s our only shower and I’d hate for my wife to be without one for more than a few days. I can always hose off
No I installed it right from the store, but I checked the instructions and it said that was ok.

US resident, I use a rewards card for most purchases because I earn points that I can redeem for plane tickets, hotel rooms, rental cars etc. I also make sure to pay the balance off every month to avoid interest.

Gaps in floating floor ( lemmy.world )
I DIY’ed the floor in my bedroom but I’ve got gaps like the one pictured in a few spots. What’s the best way to close these up?
Do you use a credit card? Why or why not?
I know this might just reflect financial culture differences across countries, but let’s give it a try...
