Tile Removal and Floor Prep in Austin, TX

Tile removal is heavy, dusty work, and floor preparation is where a hard-surface project either succeeds or fails. Once the old floor is off, the subfloor has to be flat enough for whatever goes down next, and large format tile in particular demands a flatter surface than most people expect.

Hardline Surface Co. handles removal and preparation across Austin, TX, including self-levelling compound where the substrate needs it. Skipping this step is how tiles crack, corners lift and grout lines fail within a year of a job that looked perfect on completion.

Floor preparation is the line item people cut to save money and it is the one that causes the failures. If a quote has no preparation in it, the honest question is what happens if the floor turns out not to be flat, because that cost does not disappear, it just arrives later.

Tile Removal And Floor Prep FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Tile Removal and Floor Prep

Questions we hear most often about Tile Removal and Floor Prep in Austin, TX.

Talk to a real person
What wear layer do I need for luxury vinyl plank?
12 mil for bedrooms and low traffic, 20 mil for pets, children and entry halls. Total plank thickness is not the number that matters, and a thick plank with a thin wear layer scratches within a year.
What is the best floor for a laundry room?
Sheet vinyl. It arrives in one continuous piece with no seams, and seams are exactly where water reaches the subfloor when an appliance fails.
What is the PEI rating and why does it matter?
It rates a tile's surface wear resistance. PEI 1 and 2 are wall tiles, and putting one on a floor wears the glaze through. It is a common and completely avoidable mistake.
Can you match my existing tile?
Sometimes. Discontinued lines are the usual obstacle and dye lots vary even within a current product. We will look before promising anything.
How do I get an estimate in Austin, TX?
Call (888) 928-6413 for an in-home measure. Samples come to you and we check the subfloor while we are there, because the subfloor decides half the specification.
