[QUOTE="tilenoob, post: 987078, member: 59968"] Does anyone have a DIY link or suggestions for removing just a single central tile from a kitchen floor? Here's my situation: - Prior homeowner either built the countertop around the dishwasher, or the floor after it was installed. Either way I cannot remove it as-is, nor fit the new one in (if I chose to just destroy the existing one, for example). So, I want to remove the 12x12 tiles directly in front of the dishwasher, but preferably intact as I have no spares. Every youtube video I've seen always starts from the edge, or has already pulled up some starter tiles, and so I'm trying to figure out how to get this tile, which is surrounded on all four sides (the side closest to the dishwasher only has a 2-3 inch piece that goes under the front of the dishwasher; I could break that but given the location it doesn't help me work backwards towards the piece I really need to remove). I have removed the grout with a grout knife and have tried getting underneath it with both a chisel and a drywall hammer, but I've already made one minor chip in an adjacent tile. (These are not super expensive tiles, probably Home Depot if I had to guess). Should I even bother? Should I just demo the whole room (approx. 175 square feet) and start fresh? Any ideas would be appreciated! [/QUOTE]
