Finished up this fun project (other than the mirror) in this 100+ year old house. We ended up having to take everything out. K**b and tube electrical was replaced. Isolated the circuits for the bathroom from the rest of the house. All new water lines and isolated shut offs. The most time consuming part though, was cutting out several joists, reframing the whole floor and installing a beam to re-support everything. Due to water damage over the years, the joists around the tub had completely rotted out, we had to bring the floor up 2.5 inches from one end to the other just to get it close to level. This client is having the original 65 inch cast iron tub refinished. They also designed this whole bathroom themselves and did a great job!
