The main reason that homeowners do not remove outdated tile is their concern about creating dust in the home. Most people, as well as contractors, do not want to deal with the dusty mess. The DustRam® system provides a solution to this problem for homeowners and captures the dangerous dust that is known to cause serious illnesses to those who are exposed. Many people are unaware that the dust from a floor removal is seriously dangerous when inhaled.
This dust is in the air that we breathe every day, however, the levels are low enough that they do not put us at any serious risk. For floor removal, the same cannot be said, particularly if the removal involves cement-based thin-set, tile, stone, or leveling compound. The level of silica released in the air is of a high concentration which exceeds OSHA’s Permissible Exposure Levels to a significant extent.
What makes our process different? Not only do we capture the dust immediately upon production, but we also prepare your floor for proper installation. Our system of tools and equipment enable us to grind down thin-set and scarify your concrete floor leaving you with a flatter, smoother, and better-prepared result than any other contractor can in the nation.
Other contractors do not pay close attention to the preparation of the concrete subfloor. Oftentimes the floor is not properly level meaning it can throw off the evenness of your new floor. Our team will leave your concrete in proper condition so you can easily lay your new flooring with ease.
Are you using a general contractor, flooring contractor, or flooring supplier that is going to remove ceramic tile floors or other floor types from your home without the use of the industrial-grade tools that have been created by DustRam®? If this is the case, they create what is referred to as repeated exposure to crystalline silica dust, this is in violation of the Mitigation Standards of OSHA. To eliminate such problems all you need to do is find a contractor that can carry out dust-free tile removal. DustRam® remains 50 times under the permissible exposure limit of silica dust by OSHA. That is how dust free we truly are! DustRam® beats the OSHA standard by 50 times!!!
Not all tile removal methods are the same. There are important key factors to remember when choosing the best one for you. DustRam® is the truly dust free way of removing tile floors without exposing you to the dust. The other methods are not nearly as dust free. Our system is 99.97% dust-free meaning, dust is captured at the point of creation and never released back into your home.
Crystalline silica dust is produced during the chipping tile process of a tile removal job. DustRam® uses its advanced system and technology to remove tile, capture the dust, and contain it. DustRam® captures 99.97% of crystalline silica dust.

DustRam® provides a dustless solution to tile removal using the intricately designed and engineered tools and equipment that captures the microscopic dust particles from the demolition. With 24 proprietary attachments and pieces of equipment, the DustRam® system is truly unparalleled.
Traditional tile removal captures about 10% of the dust created during the tile removal process while the virtually dust-free process captures about 60 to 70% Dust is inevitably released back into your home exposing you and your loved ones.
With traditional and virtually dust-free tile removal processes, you will be exposed to the dangers of crystalline silica dust. Inhaling this dust for short and long-term periods may result in lung cancer, COPD, silicosis, kidney disease, and more. The dust particles are approximately 100 times smaller than a single sand grain meaning you will absolutely need to hire a professional cleaning company for months and possibly years to come just to get rid of the dust.
Outdated tile removal methods require a thin-set to be scraped off using an attachment to the chipping hammer. As a result, pits are left in the concrete, and thinset is poorly removed. Your concrete slab will not be left in good condition for the floor installation process.
In tile removal, you most certainly get what you pay for. Many contractors will use sledgehammers and chisels to take out the tile. The outdated equipment and processes will end up costing you more in the long run. Don’t settle for traditional or virtually dust-free.
Outdated methods are chosen when people want to save on costs. But most people are unaware of the long-term impact that outdated tile removals end up costing you.
Cleaning after a traditional floor removal job in codes vacuuming all surfaces such as carpets, rugs, window coverings, and furniture. There will also be the need to wipe down baseboards, as well as the walls in the property, ceilings, and fans, all light fixtures, sills, and tracks, then there is the vacuuming of AC vents. We are not finished yet as there is also dust removal from bookshelves, pictures, cabinets clothing, and so forth. The typical cost for this type of cleaning is between $550 and $800. There may be a need to schedule several cleaning sessions which may even scale into years.

For DIY homeowners, using rented tools that are not part of their daily life can have a detrimental effect on their body in creating wear and tear. Even when the correct protective gear is worn, the task of tile removal is very physical. Removing flooring generates as much as a pound of dust for each square foot that is removed. That means that a typical removal of 800 square feet would generate 800 pounds of dust that could end up floating around the home. The silica dust particles that have entered the air in the home can float around for months, even when the property has been deep cleaned.
Dust can cause issues for everyone in the home, children, pets, elderly ones, however, for people who have breathing issues such as asthma, allergies, or COPD, the risk is even greater. Over the course of time, silica dust causes lung cancer and disease, however, these conditions can result after just weeks of exposure. Even when doing the least harm, silica has an impact on breathing as it causes fluid buildup and creates scar tissue.
