Getting new tile flooring for one or more rooms of a home can be an exciting time for most individuals. Yet, getting new tile flooring inside a home is not an easy process.
There is a lot of labor and work that goes into the process of removing tile flooring. One aspect that many people want to know about is how they go about removing their tile floor, but also maintaining dustless tile removal? Aripeka residents should know that there is no such thing as dustless tile removal.
There are some flooring materials that do not create dust or shards like removing tile flooring does, but there is always going to be some work involved preparing the subfloor for new flooring material. Here, we will go over some of the ways that homeowners can deal with the residue or byproducts of removing old flooring material in preparation for new flooring options.
How to Minimize Dust and Shards With Tile Removal
There is no way to avoid having dust or other types of particles come about from removing old tile flooring. There are ways to minimize this aspect, but there is always going to be some byproduct that is left behind.
This is why there are not too many professionals who claim that they can offer dustless tile removal. Aripeka residents should know that professional flooring contractors used modern machines that are more efficient at breaking up flooring tiles, and this will help minimize and localize the amount of dust that is present.
For those professionals that do not use modern tile breaking machines, the technique that they are using with the tools they have can also minimize the amount of dust that is present when breaking up flooring tiles. The most traditional tools used to remove tile flooring are hammers and chisels.
What Flooring Options Do Not Have Dust in the Removal Process?
If a homeowner does not want to deal with dust or other byproducts, and are hoping to have dustless tile removal, Aripeka residents should look into other flooring options that do not create time byproducts.
For example, carpet flooring does not have any type of dust that is created when removing the carpet material from the sub flooring of a room. It does have other byproducts, such as tack strips or nails that need to be removed in order to make room for new flooring, but there is no dust or tiny shards in the process.
If you are looking for a different option other than carpet flooring, consider looking into vinyl flooring. Vinyl material is something that does not create dust in the same way that tile flooring does.
