Hi there, Hope you can help, have just bought a very old house that needs a considerable amount of work doing to it. The bathroom has some of the nastiest ceramic floor tiles I have ever seen also the height from floor to ceiling is 2.15 metres. We would like fit a shower tower (I believe the minimum height must be 2.20 metres for this to be possible). I am hoping to get rid of the floor tiles completely and hope recuperate the old oak floor boards (which would solve the height problem), or if they are too damaged install a new one. How do I take up the tiles without damaging too much the floor underneath? Please help. Thanks. A slightly worried novice DIYer.
