Yes, that was what I planed to do initially for the bathroom (rip apart the bath and just a walk in shower), then every trades I talked to want thousands of dollars :(

Good news - no pipe leak, the grout shower lining gave up, so need to regrout. I will have the handyman come it and quote for the work (he was going to do more work there as well). Floor sander showed the pic below the floor, the beam seems to be ok :o

@handyandy yes, shower over bath tub on the other side @Moyston, don't have the exact pic, but close up of bathtub (shower on top) and reflection of shower on the mirror
