500 square feet of tile removal can emit 200-300 pounds of dust into your home. This dust contains silica, a known carcinogen. Our unique tile and wood floor removal system utilizes high-powered vacuums to ensure that dust and debris only goes one place—safely outside. We capture the dust before it even has a chance to circulate around your home.

Chronic simple silicosis comes from long-term exposure (10 years or more) to low levels of silica dust. Symptoms include chronic coughing and shortness of breath, and confirmation must be done through a chest x-ray. Accelerated silicosis comes on more quickly (within 5 or 10 years) after exposure to larger amounts of silica dust.
