I am a 63-year-old woman and pretty resourceful. But after watching this I think I will get my 27 yr old son to do it for me! I have a 20 x 10 lanai that has a concrete pad that the previous owners put house tiles on, it is right before the pool and when the tiles get wet it’s like an ice-skating rink, not safe and I notice some of them are starting to pop up. Thank you for your video!

Thanks for sharing. Which method would your recommend if thin set is over a wood floor? Once removed I plan to lay down laminate planks.

Can I use a saw all with a bit for this project? What tool are you using the electric one?

Fastest and easiest way is to use a grinder with a vacuum attachment to your vacuum cleaner. I just did this and it is the fastest method. The methods shown here take a lot of muscle power!!!!

Firs put some very hot water let it for 20 minutes than vacuum and than removed with a rotohamer and a wide scraper

Each time I look up a San Angelo bar I keep coming across a digging bar. Is that one and the same thing???

I'm doing this in a hotel they had me remove tile in the kitchen and bathroom and has that set and they gave a push blade and hammer and 4 Inc Chisel taking me 3 hrs for a to take off 4 dame Squares and there about a lil more then half a foot a Is square

[devenbodiford]

That thinset was very week for a scraper to actually work that well. Better tip is buy a wide thinset bit for your jack or use a angle grinder with a vacuum.

[joewaz]

Lol I'm dealing with this now.. I've tried both the man bar and scraper.. My wife is on the way to lower to pick up a wide chisel... I'm not sure what they used on this tile but it's a pain.
