Do I need to remove my shower?

2 years ago

last modified: 2 years ago

The flooring near the corner of my shower was soft and rotted out. I thought I could just cut it out and replace that section of subfloor but after pulling some out, it appears the subfloor runs 3 inches under the shower. Do I need to remove this shower in order to replace the subflooring?

Yes. More rot to come, I promise.
