Default Tiles on plasterboard


"Jim" (remove $ ) wrote in message

I have a new kitchen to install an, obviously, wife doesn't like the tiles
the previous owner had. I removed 1with a thin blade scraper and found

that
the removal caused serious damage to the plasterboard. Anyone know of a
better way to do this ?



Score them all with a good hand held tile cutter then tap them with a hammer
to get them to break in bits. They should peel off a lot easier that way.
Or tile straight on top of them after you've cleaned all the grease off and
scratched the surfaces to key the new adhesive in.
