Demo VCT

Sq ft rate for removing VCT using an air powered chisel?
I have an established rate for laying VCT but not for removal.

They can filter out curse words here automatically, but they can't filter out the words "what's the going rate" or "how much do I charge".

Everybody knows the only way to remove VCT is to drag dry ice over it. You don't use an air chisel.

DRY ICE, I was always wondering why I just ended up with a wet floor & had to break out the other tools
