Careful removal of old showers, tubs, tile and surrounds with floor protection, dust control and full haul-away.
Demolition is the first step of most shower projects and the one that decides how smoothly the rest goes. Done carelessly, it damages floors, cracks plumbing, spreads dust through the house and uncovers surprises with no plan. Done carefully, it exposes the real condition of the walls and pan, protects the rest of the home and leaves a clean, ready surface for rebuilding. Old showers can contain heavy tile, mortar beds and cast iron tubs, so safe handling matters. In Nashville, many homes have layers of past remodels hiding behind the tile, so a careful tear-out is often a discovery process as well.
We protect floors and pathways, cover vents and doorways with plastic and shut off water and set up dust control. The shower or tub is taken out in sections, tile and backer removed and debris carried out in controlled loads. We cap or protect plumbing and note any damage we find, with photos. After demolition, we sweep and vacuum, leaving the space ready for repair and rebuilding. If you only want demolition, we can do that too, though we recommend continuing straight into the rebuild so the open walls are not exposed for long.
Floors, vents and doorways are covered so dust and debris stay in the work area.
Removal is done in an order that avoids cracking plumbing and damaging neighboring walls.
