How to remove metal shower screen fixture without damaging tiles?

Hi, 

I'm hoping someone can please help me or give some advice.Trying to remove this metal fixture on wall which has 4 sides and was used to support the shower screen that I've now taken out. There are no tiles behind it as bathroom was tiled around this fixture.Fixture is hollow and looks like up top inside is a hex screw holding it to wall which will not budge ! (Not sure if fixture has been glued to wall) .Would like to remove this without damaging tiles around it as not re doing tiles at this stage.

Thankyou Nikki

Nice work @nikki792!

 

That looks like a fantastic result for a relatively low budget.

 

The tiles look like a great solution to cover up the hole that the pole left, and adding the bordering tiles has helped to tie it in with everything else.

 

Congratulations on a job well done.

Afternoon @nikki792 

That has come up a lot nicer then that steel post and hole! :smile: Love seeing a project come together (And yes that quote is from the A team I think :smile: )

 

Is there anything you would change about how you did the job? Process or recomended knowledge?

 

Envious of a decent job :smile:
