Bath tile replacement. Ugh. Yes, it’s a huge task to undertake and one that’s very labor intensive. But, it’s not something which requires a ton of contracting experience. However, it does mean you will need a bit of a handyman’s skill set to get it right. In other words, if you are a total neophyte, and have some experience working with tools and some light to mid-level handyman experience, you’ll probably get through it just fine. Although, if this doesn’t describe you, it’s best to go with an experienced, licensed contractor for bath tile replacement.
Materials Disposal
Okay, before we even get to bath tile replacement, you’ve got to think about disposal. Why? Because it’s going to be an eventual reality. Not to mention all the other debris that will present a real problem. (Particularly if there’s anything that’s hazardous lurking in there, like asbestos or Chinese drywall.)
Removing bathroom tile to replace it with a new tile may sound like an arduous process; however, replacing bathroom wall tiles is not really a time-consuming effort if you use the right tools for the job. You may choose to use simple tools which are found in any household to get the job done, or else you can go for more powerful tools to finish the task more quickly. --Do It Yourself
So, take the time to plan ahead. You’ll need a way to deal with all the remodeling debris in order to avoid big time safety hazards. The best thing to do is call a junk hauling service and schedule a day and time to pick it all up and take it away. This way, you don’t have to worry about the disposal process and/or recycling responsibilities.
Bath Tile Replacement in Englewood
When it comes to bath tile replacement, it’s all about working smartly. So, don’t go the DIY route if you’re unsure about your abilities. However, should you still want to take it on yourself, here are some helpful bath tile removal tips and tricks you can use:
- Clear out the space. After you shut off the water, remove everything from the space. Clear out the cabinets and closets. In addition, take down any wall decor so it’s also out of the way. Leave nothing inside because it might get damaged or could pose a safety hazard.
- Use a hand sledge and chisel. Start in a corner and begin chipping away. Do this with caution until you are confident what’s behind the tile. If you don’t, you risk creating more work by damaging the material underneath.
- Cut with a reciprocating saw. If the wall is plywood, you might have to resort to cutting into it to get the demolition done. Carefully cut through the plywood so you don’t hit electrical wires or anything else.
