How to Remove a Tile from a Floor or Wall

To remove a tile, use a nail set to mark the surface then drill holes through the tile using a carbide tipped masonry bit. Chisel away the title using a cold chisel and remove any loose mortar.

Okay with just one tile but a lot easier with a demo hammer drill and spade/chisel attachment. I'll have to do a video on it...

I would definitely remove the grout from around the tile first, but that trick with using the nailset to get some starter holes before you start chiseling was very helpful. Thanks!

You should just gut the whole bathroom - grab the sledge hammer!

My bathroom looks just like that one only different colors. Even the edging is the same. How would you remove all the tile so you can re-tile the entire bathroom?
