Marble tile removal? What's involved? - tile removal
Thinking of buying a house with about 800 square meters of tiles pink (yes pink) marble, the ground floor. It must be eliminated. I would do the job yourself, but not 100% sure what this is about. Should I replace the basement, because the mortar is used? Any help or advice would be great!

Remove Marble is not an easy task. The photos can be installed using a thin set of applications, which means that there is only a thin layer of mortar between the substrate and tile, but it is likely to be used a number of big applications. With a strong application, as the name implies, is the mortar is thick enough. With any installation, I recommend that the surface layer and scraped as clean as possible, simply install a 1 / 4 "plywood disadvantages of the same thickness back, then bolted and adding extra screws to existing underground if necessary first.
Although this work is not difficult in terms of skills, the extraordinary hard work, tiring, dirty and unforgiving in his hands / skin. Good luck!

If the current patchwork of cracked anywhere? The mortar has published all of them? If so, there is probably a problem with the undercarriage. Make sure floor joists 16 in the middle, and there is adequate support for the floor.
If the tab does not crack anywhere, you might want to consider only the current mosaic tiles. It is strongly recommended, but if you go there not even bad way.
Withdrawal plan for the beams and go from there. It is easier to int long run than trying to remove sand or mortar from the substrate current.
The tiles can be removed with a hammer from electric or regular hammer if you have enough time. Well, it's hard work. You can rent an electric hammer in a local DIY store or big box stores, or any tool rental station. We must also consider what is on after removing the old floor. Sometimes it is better to do a professional, because it with the end result of the subfloor work gets done.
