    Be gentle. Seriously. No more tricks than that. But if you are going to all of this trouble, why would you take a chance by reusing a relatively inexpensive item?

    Tile is pretty easy to remove. Just break it in one spot and then use a strong putty knife to start lifting it off. The pan will depend on it's condition. They due tend to get rusted out. I actually had a shower hat was on a concrete slab and had no pan. You'll see how everything goes once you get into it.
