What is the easiest/best way to remove linoleum flooring?
If it’s a small area like a bath go buy a hand floor scraper and be sure to buy extra blades a key is to make sure the blade remains sharp. The scraper is actually cutting the glue away from the concrete under the flooring. For a larger area go buy a large floor scraper again buy extra blades the process is the same…. now the how to’s……start somewhere in the middle and work towards the wall. Thrust the blade on a level plan and downward into the surface to be removed hold the blade so it digs into the glue under the flooring. depending on the power of your thrust and the size of your blade you’ll get about 12 inches x the width of your blade per thrust…..then lift and remove the piece you just dug-up repeat this process until the whole floor is removed. It’s hard work and you’ll be tired when you done.
