All Striped – Tile Removal

Before beginning tile removal, cover up furniture and other belongings to avoid dust and debris damage. Also, clear out the bathroom to reduce messes and make it easier for professionals to work in.

To remove floor tiles, use a wide putty knife to loosen the trim and a pry bar. Then, hammer and chisel to break them up.

High-powered machinery for floor stripping and dust removal.

When you remove old tile the adhesive material (thickeners) that holds it in place needs to be removed. This is best done with a concrete grinder. This is an industrial piece of equipment with powerful suction that traps the crystalline silica dust as it is generated and does not allow it to become airborne and contaminate the home.

It is important to note that if the tiles are asbestos rated they should only be removed by an accredited contractor, however most modern tile adhesives do not contain asbestos and can be safely stripped with commercial grade power tools. This will ensure that the new tiles adhere well to the wall and do not de-bond from the existing tile layers.

Traditional and virtually dust free methods of tile removal will release the crystalline silica into your home where it can contaminate everything from pantry cupboards to clothes. This makes cleaning up an expensive task that can take months to complete.

Safety is our number one priority.

When working with tile stripping we work in a safe manner and take all precautions to ensure the safety of ourselves, clients and anyone else in the property. We take care to protect our eyes, hands and skin while we’re doing the job. We also make sure that the area is clear of all items and furniture to avoid damage. We also wear masks and goggles to prevent irritation from tile shards and dust.

If you’re not careful, removing tile can be dangerous, especially if you’re dealing with old tiles with asbestos. However, if you’re careful, you can remove them without worrying about your health. Just remember to wear a mask and avoid scrubbing or smashing them, as this can release asbestos fibres into the air.

You can also check if the existing tiles are sound by gently tapping them. If they sound hollow, they’re likely not well bonded to the wall.

We take complete care of the cleaning process also after tile stripping.

The traditional way of stripping tile floors is a messy and time-consuming process. You need to cover furniture and other items to protect them from dust, and you’ll have a lot of waste left over afterward. But there’s a better way. Dust-free tile stripping is quicker and easier than conventional methods, and it’s also safer for workers. It reduces the amount of dangerous particulates in the air – including crystalline silica, which can cause respiratory problems and other health issues if ingested.

And if you want to go even greener, there are eco-friendly stripping solutions that work just as well as harsh chemicals. These green superheroes are like nature’s super-heroes, fighting grime and keeping the environment clean. Just be sure to dispose of the old tiles properly to keep them out of landfills. Many recycling centers accept them and give them a second life. This is a great way to save money and help the planet!
