We are redoing our bath. How difficult will it be to replace the overflow plate and the dome strainer in our tub? We called in a plumber to put in the shower head and faucet (we are changing to a nickel finish) and now want to replace these items. Are any special tools needed? Please tell us it will be easy! Thanks

Should be easy.
The overflow plate is just held on by the two bolts, and you should be able to just unscrew the strainer, and replace them both.
If they are very old, you might want to soak them in something like WD-40 overnight to help loosen them up.
Good Luck!
