If you want to remove it and start with a clean slate for a contractor to come in and give you the bathroom you want I will remove the existing walk in tub for you and payment would be the tub. I have done it successfully before no problemo. If it works for you let me know.

To be fair I think you should clean it up and give it a test spin there is nothing like it if the drain was enlarged when it was installed. You can just spray warm water on yourself while it's draining to keep from getting cold. Getting cold is the biggest drawback. You will feel like a million dollars after taxes when you are done and probably will keep it.
