This page shows videos of our dust free process for removing thinset with no dust.
You will also see in the 2nd video how we grind along the baseboards, against the walls, and under cabinets to get the thinset removed from your floors.
We have been told by installers that simply grinding the floors this way saves them between one and three days of additional work.
Here is a video that will help you understand how dust free thinset removal is done and why it’s so important.

A common question asked by people who call Arizona Home Floors is will their floors be ready for new tile/wood to be installed?
Short answer is YES, please click the photos you see below as they give you a great idea, but typically, in over 95 of cases, YES, the floors are all prepared and ready to go for new floor installation.
Floor installers will take care of the rest, as long as you are working with one that is licensed, bonded and insured, which is required in Arizona.
If you see the video that is on this page above, you can clearly see the bare concrete subfloor and how well it looks. Below is a video showing saltillo tile thinset being removed:
There are rare cases where a customer has issues with a floor not being level, and we can definitely assist with leveling your concrete floor or where they need concrete floor grinding for hardwood floor installation.

The DustRam System tile removal process flattens the higher spots, while preserving the thinset in the lower spots.
The DustRam® System Equipment Reduces Floor Preparation!
- Most concrete floors have minor imperfections in the subfloor surface. Our patented process of removing the thinset makes concrete floors smoother, flatter and closer to being installation ready.
- During the thinset removing process, our DustRam® grinding tools reduce or minimize high spots in your concrete or tile cement board – resulting in dramatically flatter subfloors.
- Some contracting companies use powerful hammer drills incorrectly during ceramic tile concrete removal which severely damages the surface of your concrete subfloor and incurs additional unanticipated repair costs.
Click here to open this picture in a new window, it shows just how thick the thinset is compared to Jack’s finger. This saltillo thinset needs to be ground down and removed prior to installation of new floors.
- With our DustRam® System, your subfloor is typically better prepared for the next installation of new ceramic tile, stone, hardwood, laminate or any other flooring you select.
- If you or your installer believe there is a hump in your floor that needs to be ground down to install your new flooring, it could actually be a low spot in the subfloor that creates the illusion of a hump. We recommend you watch the short video below to see why using a 5′, 6′, or 8′ straight-edge can be incredibly inaccurate for properly determining the flatness of your floor.
- High or low spots are best identified by using multiple straight-edges of at least a 10′ or longer length.
