I used it to remove all the tiles in the bathroom. The tile was from 1940 and had been placed on top of a thick layer of mortar, so I had to grind it into powder to get it loose from the wall. This chisel will do it much quicker than my hand. My only disappointment was how quickly the chisel lost its sharpness. I ended up buying a few pieces of this tool to get the job done. If you have a grinder I'm sure you can re-sharpen it.
