What is the Easiest Way to Replace an Old Tub Drain?

January 18, 2012 By Gunnar Davis

If your bathtub is at that point when it is looking dull, worn and in need to be refinished, your drain is probably in need as well. Having your bathtub refinished is faster, more economical and convenient than replacing the tub. But what about the drain? an old drain

Replacing a tub drain is typically a simple procedure, right? In many case yes; although removal of the old drain can sometimes open a can of worms. More often than not, the old drain has been in the current position and undisturbed for years, sometimes decades. The threadings of the new drain and old piping may not be an entirely sound fit. At this point, the old piping may have to be accessed and replaced. This sometimes requires opening up drywall in the ceiling below. If your at this point, you really have no choice but to throw time, money and inconvenience at the situation until it is fixed.

The Surface Doctors have a solution to this common problem. We can supply and install a drain sleeve.
