If you have ever had any tile removed or know anyone who has the first thing they will tell you is the mess it makes. There is no way around the mess but there are ways to help reduce the mess. When breaking up the tiles and removing them from the floor you will have dust flying. It can and will get everywhere! Here are a few things you can do to help reduce the mess.
Shut off the Air Conditioning Unit
No one in Arizona wants to do this in the heat of Summer. The removal experts would rather have the air on, its a physically demanding, dirty, hot job. That being said we recomend the air is shut off because the central air is just going to move the dust around even more.
Shut the Doors
If a room has a door and you are not having tile removed from the room, shut the door. It does not seem like much but it will reduce the space that dust can travel through and help reduce the dust you need to clean up later.
Plastic Please
Your contractor should provide plastic sheeting to cover any doorways going into or out of the room having tile removed. This is something that a good general contractor will provide without being asked. If they don't set up plastic to help reduce the movement of dust ask that it be done.
Negative Air Machine.......YES PLEASE!!!!!!
A negative air machine will reduce the amount of dust left in your home. This is not something that every contractor uses but it does make a big difference. There are many different ways to help reduce the dust that is a part of the tile removal and a negative air machine is just one of them. The important thing to find out is how your general contractor plans to help reduce the mess.
