Weekend Warriors: Tile removal

Removing tile in the kitchen or bathroom can be done for many reasons. Usually you want to lift tile when you are renovating and replacing it with a more attractive covering, or when you are uplifting to expose original wooden floors.

Sometimes there's also the unfortunate situation where you have to break through wet-area tiles to effect urgent repairs or replace old and chipped tiles. 

No matter your reason for ripping up the kitchen or bathroom floor, you can rest easy knowing Kennards Hire has you covered with the tools for the job - as well as the clean up!

The Hilti Cordless Hammer Drill is an exceptionally efficient unit, boasting a performance-to-weight ratio that makes it ideal for working in tight corners and hard-to-reach places.

This versatile tool is ideal for drilling into masonry and brick, and can be used for other DIY jobs around the house and outdoor areas. If you need to drill anchor holes to secure fittings for your patio, or socket recesses for plumbing this is the tool for the job. 

With a chisel bit, you'll be lifting up tile in no time. And fortunately the TE DRS-M dust removal module will keep the mess to more manageable minimum. Of course, no job is ever complete without dust or dirt getting everywhere, so when it comes time to clean up after yourself, look no further than the Hilti vacuum cleaner.

Your home vacuum cleaner wasn't made to handle cleanup on a building site, so using one of our industrial strength units will probably be to your advantage when tackling mounds of grout, dust and tile shards.

DIY projects are a great way to fill up a weekend and also provide the lasting benefit of an improvement to your home. Getting stuck in with a friend, your partner or the kids is a fantastic way to spend time together and learn and share new skills.

Kennards Hire has all the tools and advice to help you get started on your Weekend Warrior project.
