demo is generally pretty easy and in most cases quick. total time on this was about a half hour. good news is there is no visible termite damage. the leak isn;t coming from where paul thought. it;s been a pain in the ass trying to find. i think, after going under the vanity and looking at the drain pipes, that that is where the leak is. the rubber gaskets are hard and rotten. now paul is considering taking the tub out completely and replacing it with an elongated shower pan. remains to be seen.
