Blocking shower drains

[richierich31]

Hi there

I'm new to this and home diy.

I've recently bought my first house and there is a shower in the pantry area as the previous tenant was elderly.

we are wanting to remove the whole unit and replace it with a washing machine area. as there is a water feed in the position i am wondering how to block up the shower drainage hole??

thanks

Richie

Are you sure you want to, unless it is in the way. Good for mopping up spills / leakage from a washer. Other then that if you want it gone, I assume you live in a house with a basement. Disconect the pipe and cap it off. Either with a big pvc screw in plug or a pvc cap.
