Removed tiles

[Aqua Tiling]

how do you go about with disposing the tiles you have taken off???

[pgreen1011]

Hi Mark

I "recycle" mine at the local recycling depot (dump) They have a skip solely for ceramics

[doug boardley]

I get customers to dispose of them, if it's in a full refurb, there's often a skip on site too

[Aqua Tiling]

also can anyone advise me, i recently stripped 3 shower rooms of tiles, and thought the bloke was gonna give me a couples of days money, but instead he asked how much do i want? is there a price for removing

[Sir Ramic]

Daywork rate plus any costs incurred removing wastage....you do have a waste management licence dont you ?

If there is not many tiles then I bag them up into black bin bags and tape up the end, and into the Domestic wheelie bin they go.

[Aqua Tiling]

no, he took the tiles in his van and put them in his skip. i just stripped and put in monkey tubs and took them downstairs, i aint ever heard of one sir

my binmen come every fortnight, and theres no room in the bin for our own rubbish

[Sir Ramic]

You need a licence to carry waste

i get customers to dispose of now,,waste carriers licence and payments on every time i enter the dump is too costly at the moment

[david campbell]

customers problem,unless i know the customer then it's down the dump and the usual lies "just re-tiling my own bathroom m8,where do these go" as if i've forgot from 2 weeks ago

[brian c]

im the same,wheelie bin or i have a guy who will uplift them for a fee.

[Richardk]

If a small quantity I put them in the customers wheelie bin. If a large amount, I get a miniskip which I will have costed into the job.

[Phil Hobson]

Most of my work tends to be a skip on site. For smaller jobs if customer supplied then I leave it to them.

[Wingn]

Usually stack them neatly and put them out the back/into a trailer if they have one.

If I've to take something to the skip, just a case of bringing it in the car and trailer in some clean clothes.

[whitebeam]

Do have a weigh bridge at a skip hire company close by but don't have a waste transfer licence.

Explain to the customer about waste so they tend to take to the tip

Have seen a machine somewhere think its Rubi, that grinds the tiles up into small pieces then you sell it back too the customer for £25 sqm as decorative path toppings...
