You are literally the only contractor who mentioned to be mindful of your knees and back as you're bending over to work the demo hammer. Seems like a minor tip, but it is far far far from a minor tip and goes to show just how thorough and mindful of quality workmanship you are. Thank you!

Very nice. Very detailed for beginners. A tip is to duct tape your vacuum hose to the demo bit so the dust goes down. Also a spritz of water on the floor helps minimize dust and loosens thinset to a degree

A master's class on safety and technique and one of the marks of a pro. Thank you. So many times you see people no mask, no gloves, no ear or eye protection. They're setting themselves up. That's why they're called "accidents" , and they will happen, and breathing that dust you may not feel the effects until years later and then it's too late people. Two thumbs up for your demonstration.

The hammer used in the video is 14 Amps. Power for demolition hammers usually referenced in pounds (lbs). This is a 20lb demo hammer. The link to the tool used in this video is in the video description box. If you have a tool rental nearby, check with them to see if they have one available for rent. If they don't have the scraper tool attachment, you may want to buy one and pause production until it arrives. Your entire body will thank you. Cheers!

Great video. If you are on a budget and don't have access to the equipment he used you can put on your safety glasses and gloves then slam the tile with a sledge hammer then take a flat shovel and pop up any remaining as you shovel the debris into trash bags. Using a smaller rotary hammer set on hammer only with a tile chisel also pops them up quick if you start on the corner of the tile rather than the center of the tile when prying them up. Same technique for the shovel or floor scraper. That's about $50 to $250 in tools rather than around $800. If your only doing this once you can always rent the Rotary hammer he used as an option. Great video. If money isn't a factor than make your life easy and use the same method in the video and you cant go wrong. Had to do a demo once where there was no power. Couldn't use the rotary hammer so had to go with the sledge.

Thank you for the fantastic video and explanation of this process! I have about 400 sq ft of 12x12 tile on concrete to remove (I’m so glad the other 450 sq. ft. of my condo is carpet!). The existing tile floor was horribly installed (uneven/ unleveled practically from tile to tile, and very uneven and inconsistent grout-width throughout). It seems as if the installer “eyeballed” the installation. A very sloppy job, and have been wanting to remove and replace it since I bought this place several years ago. I wasn’t sure how to go about it. Your patient and thorough presentation was fantastic! I will probably be putting down an engineered wood or vinyl-clad flooring rather than ceramic. I have had enough of this ugly ceramic, and you have given me hope that with the right mindset that it can be done. Kudos to you, sir!

Glad you can rent these demolition hammers, $700+ is alot. I might get lucky with my kitchen as the floor wasn't leveled correctly and have alot of hollow spots under the tiles. Previous owners replaced 44' of drain line between kitchen and bathroom in order to sell the house and had the slab tore up. They didn't level correctly when replaced and tiles they put down started coming up shortly after I moved in. After spending $300 on Fix a Floor tubes, 30 of them, and still not fixing the problem I realized what was going on. Still have a ton of hollow spots and can see areas where tiles don't line up. Will DIY using your method and use self leveler afterwards before installing new tile.

Because first of my back and second because the size of the room of over 600sq. Plus someone use a thin set with a Bonding agent. Which Resulted in us using the hard Chipper end. We tried using the Scraper. But it wasn’t working and it was coming apart. Even after taking an impact to it, In order to tighten up the nuts. We finally got it after 7 hours and three hours of grinding the floor. Oh and HOURS of cleaning the house. That’s even with us. Taping up the doors and vents.

I was really stressing about removing some 1200 sq ft of old 12" tile and this video put me in the right direction. Thank you so much for sharing. I had 2 questions. The floor we have is not concrete but instead a wood subfloor. Is their anything different I should do? I saw in the video that you had removed a tub but left the pipe and fixtures. How did you handle their removal? We are looking to replace a tub like this with a walk-in shower. Thank you for you help.
@RENOS4PROSJOES 3 жыл бұрын
Hi, These tile removal tools and techniques are designed for use with a concrete subfloor. This technique will gouge holes and damage a wood subfloor. You will need to use a sledgehammer and long prybar to remove your tile. It's likely going to be a lot more messy than the job in this video. The tub supply lines were left in place so that we didn't have to stop working during demo. On this project, the concrete had to be jackhammered to expose the copper water lines, and then they had to be reconfigured, and then the concrete was replaced. We installed a freestanding tub and floor-mounted tub filler. If your subfloor is wood, and you have a basement or lower level, turn off the water, cut the copper water lines, cap them below the floor (temporarily), and when you are ready, drill new holes and then uncap the waterline and install/ connect additional plumbing for your new shower valve. Hope this helps!

Now that's a good question. If you are referring to a heavy duty commercial jackhammer, I'd probably shy away from using it. Part of what makes the hammer in this video work so well, is its weight and its handles. The hammer has to be leaned over at a around a 45 degree angle. In my opinion, the "big boy" hammer is going to be too heavy and hard to handle on this type of project.
