I saw your question about how to remove tile shower drain cover and I thought I could help you out. I have done this on my own a couple of times. I usually lubricate the drain cover and unscrew the bolts. Then, I turn the drain with pliers. There are more steps in this process, so you can read them below and understand the method.

How to Remove Shower Drain Cover?

Here is the process I followed to remove the cover and clean the shower drain in my bathroom.

  1. Drains are kept in place by screws. So, begin by unscrewing them. On the side, keep a few paper towels with you to clean up soap dirt, and hair. 

  2. If you feel the drain cover is fixed tightly, apply a drain lubricant to loosen the drain cover. Avoid using oil or fat for this purpose. 

  3. If you find out that the drain is clogged, I would recommend you to clear it up using a drain snake. I use this tool often and have seen great results.

  4. After you unclog, apply lubricant over the drain once it is completely dry.  

  5. After waiting for 10 minutes, you can unscrew the drain cover.

  6. Then, take two nose pliers and insert them on either side of the drain. 

  7. Start turning them towards the side where the drain opens.

  8. The drain cover will come off easily after this.

This is how to remove shower drain cover to clean on your own. Hopefully, this helps.
