How can I remove a tile floor easily?
I'm 72. I don't have the upper body strength I used to and have had rotator cup problems so I rely on power tools. Any suggestions?

Better hire someone
We just did this about a year ago and while you can use power tools on some of the tiles to remove, we had to use a lot of our own strength. I would definitely get a quote or see if you have someone who can help you out.
I agree. Hire somebody. A neighbor, friend or friends kids,
I'd hire someone. Risking your health isn't worth it! Ugh, hate removing tile!
A power hammer, chisel works good, you just push it along and let the jackhammer effect do most the work? Although they can be a little heavy?
