Once the old tub gets into the drain it is impossible to remove.........
You step on the plug in the drain? The plug is part of the trim ring and screws into the drain. It seals the drain to the bottom of the tub. You can remove it and replace the drain completely, but you can't take out the plug.
get an "ID" (that is Inside Diameter) pipe wrench. they are available at most good hardware stores. this will allow you to turn the flange from the inside.
I assume you mean when you turn on the sink water comes up from the drain in the tub? If that's the case, the drain from the tub is clogged. The sink is higher than the tub so the water comes up there.
Not really. You can use the handle of a pair of pliers to turn the top piece out. Grip the head of the pliers with another pair.
it depends on what kind of drain it is.
Drain cleaner or a snake. If you use a snake, take the overflow plate off on the side of the tub above the drain and go down from there. That saves making the sharp bend if you go through the drain itself. It may be hair wrapped around the drain shut off which will come out when you remove it from the overflow tube.
Remove them with a handled net, then check for tadpoles or eggs. Drain and clean the water.
Can someone please assist. I am have the same issue. Toronto CA
yes, if you put your drain in the close position ( to where the tub would fill up if the water wher on ) you would then get a pair of channel locks and start to turn counter clockwise for a few full rotations. The drain should then remove its self and you can clean all the hair and other foren objects! Hopes this help you .
Usually. Going through the overflow drain gets you straight into the drain without having to make the sharp bend in the tub drain. There could be a trap that comes apart in the drain underneath if it is accessible.
Connection of the washer drain hose to the tub drain is very important. This will help prevent leaks for example.
