Steps to Remove a Mosaic Tile

Tiles consist of smalls, which arranged in different shape, such as the regular, geometric or haphazard patterns. Nowadays,s are applied for the floors and walls ofs and bathrooms, which can lend a dated or even garish look to the decor. Thin set concrete attaches mosaics to concrete, concrete boards or other backing material, and grout seals the gaps between the tiles. Thus, removings involves breaking the bonds between the tiles, as well as between the tile and the backing material. Mosaic removal requires a significant amount of time and effort and is not a task that should be underestimated.
Remove as much of the grout as possible using a powered grout removal tool like a handheld oscillating with a grout removal blade, but do not spend an excessive amount of time on this step. Attempt to loosen or break the bonds between tiles by removing grout.Strike the tiles with a hammer to break or loosen a few tiles. Wedge a chisel or pry bar under the loose edges and strike the other end of the chisel or pry bar to break the tiles free. Repeat the hammering and leveraging process until all of the tiles are removed.
