Changing tub handheld sprayer to shower

Hello all. My main bathroom in my home was remodeled by the previous owners, and they put in a giant tub but removed the shower. My wife wants a shower in that bathroom now but I am trying to figure out a way to do this without ripping up all the tile. I did some research online and found some things on diverter valves and these extending shower bars that I could possibly combine with a 360 curtain rod to put a shower in here. I believe one of the things I saw comes out of the existing faucet, but there is also already a handheld sprayer on a long hose installed that maybe I could repurpose? Im wondering if this is something a person with basic diy skills should attempt, or if I should just hire a professional. Thanks for any thoughts on this. https://imgur.com/a/WfVZHHQ submitted by /u/xakantorx [link] [comments]
