How do you remove the drain plug from an old bathtub?
Begin by removing the knob that is on top of the stopper. Use one hand to hold the base of the stopper in place, and turn the knob counter-clockwise until it is all the way off. If the knob is too tight to unscrew by hand, wrap a washcloth or rag around the knob and use standard pliers to loosen.
