When you want to drain the water from the bathtub, you need to remove the bathtub plug. Let’s learn about the different methods to remove a bathtub plug.

1. Various Methods to Remove Bathtub Plug

1. First, drain the water from the bathtub, then insert a thin metal sheet or a small screwdriver into the gap around the edge of the bathtub plug and gently pry it up.

2. If the bathtub plug is made of wood, you can first use an electric drill to make a hole in the plug, then insert a corkscrew into the hole, and slowly pull it out.

3. If the bathtub plug is a pop-up type, you can repeatedly press down on the plug with your hands several times until it pops up. Alternatively, you can slowly rotate the bathtub plug to unscrew it.

4. If the bathtub plug is made of metal, insert a flathead screwdriver into the gap around the edge of the bathtub plug, then use a hammer to gently tap on the screwdriver. Be careful not to hit too hard to avoid damaging the bathtub.

2. What to Do If Bathtub Plug Won’t Press Down

1. Over time, the bathtub plug may become aged or rusty, causing it to be unable to press down. In this case, insert a flathead screwdriver into the gap around the bathtub plug to pry it up, then install a new bathtub plug so that it can be pressed down easily.

2. If there are foreign objects accidentally stuck in the gap of the bathtub plug during use, this may also prevent it from pressing down. In this case, pour some drain cleaner or cola into the gap to clear the blockage, and then the bathtub plug can be pressed down.

The above are detailed introductions about various methods for removing bathtub plugs and how to handle a bathtub plug that won’t press down. I hope this information is helpful to friends in need.
