Should I Hire a Professional for Saltillo Tile Removal?
If you're considering trying to remove the saltillo tile floor yourself you've got a big job on your hands. Even to tile removal professionals, saltillo tile is often regarded as the least desirable tile to remove due to two primary reasons - ease and weight.
Unlike ceramic tile, Saltillo tile tends to break into tiny clay fragments when removed so it'a definitely not easy, and can take two to three times as long to get all the little pieces pulled up.
Saltillo tile is also much thicker and heavier than other traditional tile flooring, with each square foot weighing as much as 10 pounds because of the thick mortar used. Saltillo tile often has thick, 1/2" grout lines that are filled with thinset or tile mortar, making the removal of this tile a daunting task.
In addition to it being a difficult and time-consuming process, it's important to do it correctly in order to protect and avoid damaging your floors. That's where Total Floor Removal comes in.
