Step 1 · Prepare the Work Area

Before you begin, gather all necessary tools and supplies. Close the bathtub drain stopper to prevent any screws or small parts from falling down the drain. Lay a thick rag or old towel in the bottom of the tub beneath the spout to protect the surface from scratches from dropped tools. This initial setup prevents costly mistakes and makes the job go smoothly.
