GREAT IDEA FOR A DIY VID.! yes there are tons of "how to's" on putting this stuff up , but I think it's awesome you took the total opposite approach of what's all the rave,,,with everyone slapping up tiles ,. But you've showed us how to remove all those trendy tiles , that we just one day don't like anymore, So thanks for taking the time
Am glad that i have your tutorial video came across and I have all the simple and easy information that I needed. Thanks so much for such wonderful advice
Be prepared to have to replace drywall if that's what the old tiles are stuck to! I've just started stripping a kitchen and the previous tiled used large dabs of tile adhesive meaning when they came away they've brought large chunks of plasterboard with them! No choice no but to cut out the plasterboard and replace.
This has been very helpful. I need to remove a blue speckled border of tile and just leave the remaining white tiles as the blue is looking dated. I hope it works.
Thanks for this video. I had to laugh at another video which purported to show how to remove tiles. He did remove the tiles all right but broke every one🙂 I think we already knew how to break them off.
Can be a real challenge (if you care about your health) taking the tiles off an asbestos wall. Would a heat gun be sufficient in softening the tile adhesive?
I’ve just done this on a small area of tiles but think I might have breathed some of the grout dust in (only a tiny bit). There was nothing about wearing a mask so I’ll be fine right?
You’ll be fine if it’s a little grout dust....but in saying that if you have an old house which has tiles backed by asbestos board as that also needed to be messed you should down tools and call in the professionals.
Rob I'm trying to remove just one L-shaped cut tile to replace it with a whole tile after a new boiler was fitted nearby. It just refuses to budge, all the levering with my chisel wont move it, any ideas?
This video is misleading in terms of removing the tile adhesive; it is not as simple as just scraping it off -- the hardened adhesive does not flake off easily.
@@harrybouch7907 Other videos that I've watched use steam to soften the adhesive first. Then it scrapes off easily. They use a steamer similar to one used in removing wall paper. I have not tried it, but from experience, I know that dry tile adhesive doesn't flake off easily
This is a seriously underrated video, thanks for taking the time to put it together, much appreciated!

I'm here because I have a home now and manhood has called..

Thank you! other videos show removing the drywall. I'm only trying to remove a single row of tiles, so this helps!

Great video, thank you Rob! Extra brownie points for mentioning safety first. Much appreciated.
Silly question, what if you want to not put more tile back on it? Like what if you just want a normal wall?
Thank you so much 😊 just what I needed to know. We’ve all got to start somewhere haven’t we? 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Helpful, and much less surgery than others I've been looking at. Thanks.

Helpful! Thanks! I'm planning on buying my first house soon, so I will use these tips should I need to change the bathroom
Thanks for that
Thanks for this video.

Helpful video Rob thanks. Er I note that the hands in the video were gloveless! :)
Very helpfull!
Awesome Video!!
What if you don’t want to put tile back on the wall?
Thank you so much , excellent video 🌈
What is the best way To do if you’re replacing the walls (dry walls) and frames / studs of the bathroom wall?

Very useful video 🙏🏼
When I tried taking off bathroom tile I really fucked up the drywall underneath

I give a thumbs up to any videos that call on safety first. Unbelievable how many videos have dudes smash walls etc out with nothin for the eyes
What's tools do I need apart from hammer?
Good vid that mate I will try that method

A home jackhammer and get it off in bits. That tile may have been cemented in. If you make a small hole in doing so, just patch up wall.
Got it. I'll learn to live with the ugly yellow kitchen wall tiles.
What are the tools your using
Is plastic 4x4 tile removal done the same way?
Does this do the same as floor tiles as well?
What’s the tool called you are hitting with the hammer to remove the tile please??
Actually I’ve found it! Thank you
Lmao and didn't tell anyone else what a jerk.
Hahahaah
What about mosaic tiles
Leve the tiles in the background!
Wear gloves for this, unlike the demo lol
Seriously. Spent half the video talking about “safety”. Fucking kid glove society, especially in Europe.
My tiles won’t go away!!!
Best reason I can think of is because you no longer want them.
It will be not worked brother
This video is misleading in terms of removing the tile adhesive; it is not as simple as just scraping it off -- the hardened adhesive does not flake off easily.
So what do you propose instead?

Why remove perfectly good tiles!?
Because you want different ones...?
They're only perfectly good if you want them.
This is just an example video, chill
Huge mistake. Regret doing this. Nightmare
