ᐅ Removing Tiles from Oriented Strand Board (OSB)

Created on: 13 Oct 2016 20:11

Hello,

I have another problem now.

The tiles in the hallway and kitchen are glued onto a particle board. Underneath this particle board are the original floorboards.

We want to install new tiles in both rooms. If we level the floor and glue the new tiles on top, the floor height will be too high and the doors will no longer fit. Also, there would be a 3cm (1.2 inches) height difference compared to the other rooms.

I have tried to remove the tiles, but only small corners break off and the particle board also gets damaged.

I would also like to remove the board.

What would you do? Maybe cut it out piece by piece?

Thank you very much for the help.

If the floorboards stay in place and I lay tiles over them, the floor will be raised, creating edges at the transitions to the doors.

In the living room, for example, we are keeping the floorboards and using them as the flooring.

There is screed under the joists, right? If so, it would also be an option to remove the joists, and then you can pour in anything you want, for example screed or a full-surface filling.

You can also place the boards/floorboards between the joists, so the Fermacell boards have full-surface support and the overall assembly is thinner.

That was also my idea earlier. However, a leveling compound would probably need to be poured to create a flat surface for support.

This is how it is described on the fermacell website.

My carpenter also had the idea to remove the floorboards and use the space underneath as a building surface.

The leveling compound can then be used to fill the gaps in between.

It would be just 2 rooms, a total of 25 m² (269 ft²).
