How do i remove my wall tile from around my shower head and handles with out breaking my plumbing with sledge.

I used a sledge hammer on the rest but i worried about breaking my water line if i just pound it with the hammer.

  1. tap it lightly.chisel it out. or slide somthing under it slightly and pry it out!
  2. Remove grout with a knife or grout removal tool between tiles, then pry off with a putty knife, tiny pry bar, or chisel.
  3. Use a small hammer and a chisel. Put the chisel along the edge of the tile you are removing, and tap it in behind the tile. Take your time and you'll be fine.
  4. Yep. Chisle. Hammer. I've even used an ice pick in a pinch. : D
