    Smile Replacing Floor

    Hi I am about to re do my upstairs bathroom, Im replacing all tiles and need to get the tiles off the floor which are on ply which have been screwed down onto floorboards. The ply has to come up as i need to do some pipe work, im guessing the screw heads will be covered in adgesive.
    ( I was thinking brute force!) any suggestions ? am I missing an easier solution. Any suggestions appreciated thanks.

    welcpme to the forum.
    when you remove the tiles quite often you can often see the haeds of the screws and release them. but if not a hammer and crow bar usually work easy enough.
    just ensure that once it is up and you have completed the pipe work that you refasten the floor boards securely with no movement.
