You can generally remove the tub but you will definetly have to take up a couple courses of tile including the bullnose that wraps arund the edge. The only problem is that how your describing the tile, theyre not available anymore so if you crack a tile or a bullnose, your beat. Without seeing the layout you probably wont have enough room to slide the tub out, youll probably have to lift one end up and almost stand it up to get it out of the enclosure. In that case, you will have to take up probably 2 feet of tile. Another thing, cast iron tubs are like 300 lbs. THeyre not easy to manuever at all.......Look into Americast tubs. They look like cast iron but are light.
