Could anyone DM me with a quality referral for tile removal and possible installation?

This is a fairly large amount of tile, about 1000 sq ft.

Thanks guys. I laid the tile I am considering removing. It was fun but never again.

I'm not looking for a DIY, but a referal to a contractor.

There are some videos on YouTube of a guy from Phoenix demonstrating his dustless concrete grinding for post-tile removal slab leveling. I believe it is azhomefloors.com, but you might want to Google a bit to see if there's more than one and I've gotten them confused with another business. I found them when evaluating my options for demoing a small downstairs bathroom (I was thinking of grinding the concrete myself) They might be able to give you a local recommendation, or tell you what kinds of questions to ask and what kind of equipment to look for when choosing locally.

Also, if you're thinking about installing the tile yourself, hang out at the John Bridge online tiling forum.
