I want to strip my hall back to floorboards, it has rancid laminate floor tiles which is stuck down with the thin layer of what looks like cement. It's gritty and can be sanded off. Has anyone done this themselves? I'm guessing lots of prep will be required to stop the dust getting everywhere, but my big concern would be the machine cutting too deep and ruining the wood underneath the adhesive.
TBH it might not be much more expensive to get a pro in than to hire machinery, buy dust sheets etc but I'm still interested in your stories
