Prepare a sound surface for the next finish.

We remove existing tile and prepare the exposed surface for the next finish. The scope starts with the floor or wall construction, bonded layers, access and the required finished height. We plan dust control, protection, debris handling and suitable patching or flattening before new tile work begins. Concealed damage or materials requiring specialist assessment are identified separately before further work.
