Removing Tiles

Removing Tiles

Our specialist Removing Tiles team at Tile Removal Sydney can remove any type of tile in any location we are well known throughout Sydney for removing tile floors with great success when other companies or private contractors have failed. When Removing Tiles there is a different process and things to think about depending on where the removal of tiles is taking place.

Such as is our team Removing Tiles from your bathroom, kitchen, floor, or walls, as well as things like when removing a tile floor, does it contain asbestos in the glue? How are you going to remove the Tile Glue? It all just becomes way too much of a headache for any customer to deal with. So why not hire our specialist team that makes Removing Tiles a breeze! no more frustration, no more mess, no more cleaning up, hiring equipment, or having to dispose of the mess!

When Removing Tiles from a floor it doesn’t matter what material the tiles are made of.

What’s important is:
1. How the tiles were installed
2. What the subfloor underneath the tiles is

Floor Tiles are most commonly glued to a timber or concrete subfloor. But they can also be installed in a huge amount of different ways such as:
– Screed
– Glued directly to the floor
– Sand and cement Bedding
– Cement sheeting
– Glued to particle board, masonite, chipboard, yellow tongue ETC.
– Wire mesh cement underlay
– Wire mesh sand and cement bedding

So it doesn’t matter if you’re removing slate tiles, terracotta, ceramic, marble, or any other type of tile. What’s important is what the subfloor is and how the tiles were installed – as that dictates the method of removal, the time it will take, and the cost of the job.

– Removing Ceramic Tiles

Removing Floor Tiles Dust-Free (Will The Job Be 100% Dust-Free?)

At Tile Removal Sydney we offer a Dust-Free Tile Removal experience on all jobs whenever physically possible.

– FREE OF CHARGE

No, The Job Will Not Be 100% Dust-Free. BUT!
How Do We Achieve A Almost 90% Dust-Free Tile Removal & Concrete Grinding Experience For Our Clients Free Of Charge?

Step 1: Removal Of The Tile Flooring System
Removal of the tile flooring with the use of our high-powered Hilti TE-2000 AVR Demolition Hammer. Which we connect to our Hilti TE DRS-B Dust Removal System which is connected to a DustMaster DM-2680-M Dust Extractor on all of our jobs.

Step 2: Concrete Grinding The Glue/Cement Residue
We will remove all the tile glue/cement residue on your concrete slab with the use of a high-powered Satellite 480 G3 Concrete Grinder that is connected directly into a high-powered DustMaster DM-2680-M Dust Extractor.

When our team is Removing Floor Tiles substantial dust is produced from Removing Floor Tiles off the floor as well as from grinding the glue/cement residue off the slab that is under the tiles after they have been removed. This dust is still MASSIVELY REDUCED by the use of our high-powered commercial dust extractors that are plugged directly into our equipment.

But unfortunately, small amounts of dust are still produced and cannot be completely eliminated even with the most expensive high-end equipment and the latest technology. It should also be noted that certain equipment such as concrete grinders NEED small amounts of dust to function correctly. (Although over 90% of the dust is still sucked up by a 3 engine dust extractor that is plugged directly into the concrete grinder) but around 10% of the dust still escapes.

This system is intentionally designed to let 10% of the dust escape as the concrete grinder needs dust under the diamonds (the blades that are grinding your slab) to grind the concrete without damaging your slab or our equipment.

If you are concerned about the small amounts of dust that may possibly get into areas that we are not working in such as the kitchens, bathrooms, cabinets, etc. we would advise that you seal off those areas that we are not working in with plastic and sticky tape before our team arrives to avoid delays.

Removing Tiles Off Any Surface Is Our Specialty!

Removing Tiles in Sydney is our specialty we have over 35 years of experience in Removing Tiles our prices are the lowest in NSW and we can send a Tile Remover specialist who has trained and licensed to work on residential, commercial properties as well as work sites. Removing Tiles can be extremely exhausting without the proper heavy-duty powered equipment such as 10 AMP Hilti TE-2000 AVR demolition hammers as well as the necessary PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) to avoid serious injury.

So if your thinking of Removing Tiles it’s usually best to leave it up to the specialist to avoid injury as well as having to fork out the cost for PPE, heavy machinery as well as a truck, and disposal of waste. It can also be incredibly exhausting and punishing on the body without a well-equipped team that specializes in Removing Tiles on a daily basis.

Removing Tiles involves using a specially designed blade combined with vibration from a jackhammer to get underneath the tiles separating them from the subfloor. Tile Removal Sydney uses this process to Remove Tiles off the concrete, yellow tongue, timber floorboards, and compressed sheeting. This process is effective on almost all tiled floor types with little to no subfloor damage.

Removing Tiles Off Screed (Cement)

Removing Tiles on screed – Screed is a mix of sand and cement and is used primarily to build up bathroom and laundry slabs and create fall to drains, Screed can also be used to create a level bed to lay tiles on. Most Slate, Terracotta or Marble Tiles are laid on the screed. The process of Removing Tiles on screed is much the same as basic Tile Removal however the process takes longer and produces a lot more rubble.

Removing Tiles Off Cement Sheeting

Removing Tiles on cement sheeting – Many Tiles laid on a timber subfloors have an underlay. This means that the Tiles are laid on sheeting that is fixed (either glued or nailed) to the timber subfloor. If the cement sheeting is nailed (there will be hundreds of nails) then they will need to be manually removed one at a time. If the cement sheeting is glued then the glue residue will need to be sanded. Removing Tiles off the cement sheeting is our specialty. However, if the subfloor is soft or water damaged then some damage may occur depending on the condition of the subfloor and the strength of it.

Removing Tiles Directly Glued Onto Timber

Removing Tiles that are direct stick onto timber – Removing Tiles glued directly onto timber subfloors are very hard to remove. The type of tile, the glue used and even the type of timber subfloor affect the speed and outcome of the process significantly. This process can create minor damage to the timber subfloor depending on the circumstances and the strength of the timber subfloor beneath the tiles. While Removing Tiles we will always take the utmost care to keep your subfloor intact and undamaged.

Removing Tiles Directly Glued Onto Concrete

Removing Tiles that are direct stick onto concrete – Removing Tiles glued directly onto concrete subfloors are very hard to remove. The type of tile, the glue used will affect the speed and outcome of the process significantly. This process will first involve us removing the tiles from the concrete subfloor. Which will then leave “Tile Glue Residue” on your concrete which will need to be ground off using a Concrete Grinder.

Removing Tiles Off A Wall

Removing Tiles off a wall – There are 3 main types of Removing Tiles off walls. Removing Tiles on plasterboard, Removing Tiles on cement sheet and Removing tiles on rendered brick walls. All 3 types of Tile Removal have very different processes and outcomes.

Removing Tiles Off Plasterboard Sheeting

Removing TIles off plasterboard sheeting – Removing Tiles off plasterboard sheeting involves cutting out the Tiles and plasterboard sheets. The plasterboard sheet is removed because the Tile Glue itself is stronger than the plasterboard and Removing Tiles only will result in damage to the plasterboard sheeting. New Plasterboard sheets will need to be installed before a tiler can re-tile.

Removing Tiles Off Villa board

Removing Tiles off villa board – Removing Tiles off villa board is totally different as the sheeting is much stronger. In most cases, this allows the Tiles to be more easily removed off the sheet and the glue can be scraped off. Once this is achieved, new Tiles can be laid. However, the cement sheet may also need to be removed if the Tile Glue bond is stronger than the sheeting, as Removing Tiles will cause damage to the sheeting if this is the case. 

Removing Tiles Off A Rendered Brick Wall

Removing Tile off rendered brick walls – Removing Tiles on rendered brick walls is the hardest out of all the situations possible. Removing Tiles can be very difficult depending on the condition of the render and the amount of Tile Glue used. This process involves using a small jackhammer to Remove the Tiles off the rendered wall. This can only be done if the render is hard and intact. If the render is soft, all the render needs to be removed off the affected area and re-rendering will need to be completed before Tiles are laid.

Is There Magnesite Under Your Tiles?

If your home was built in the 1920s – 1980s, it is likely that your home (Especially unit blocks in NSW) could potentially have Magnesite Flooring underneath your Tiles. Magnesite is present below the Tiles. Magnesite is a product used as a noise preventative and a floor leveling agent.

Magnesite Flooring absorbs moisture (particularly in areas prone to moisture such as external walls, doorways, around shower recesses, near windows, laundries, etc.) Unfortunately, once Magnesite Flooring absorbs moisture it starts a chemical reaction that will cause Concrete Cancer over long periods of time.

Because your Magnesite Flooring was laid 40 – 100 years ago, it is likely that it has absorbed moisture over the many decades that it has been trapped under your flooring system and it has most likely started to break down and lose its strength making it an unsuitable floor leveling agent that it once was, as well as very hollow, which destroys its soundproofing.

The best thing you can do to prevent further damage to your property and the concrete slab is to remove it ASAP. Magnesite Flooring consists of Magnesium Oxychloride, which may contain asbestos.

Since it is a health hazard and a major safety risk in NSW, if you remove your flooring system and find out there is Magnesite under it.

YOU MUST remove your Magnesite Flooring for the safety of you and everyone else in your unit block.

Strata will pay to remove your Magnesite Flooring as it is considered “Common property”. Magnesite Flooring can cause Concrete Cancer which is a major risk to everyone’s safety as well as the successful reinstallation of your new flooring system.

NO company will give you any form of warranty or insurance on any flooring installation job on a magnesite floor, which is another reason why it should always be removed.
