How To Remove Interlocking Garage Floor Tiles

By Lisa Hobbie

Created: Aug, 2021 - Modified: Aug, 2023

One aspect that makes interlocking garage floor tiles so popular is the ease of installation and removal, making the replacement process a relatively easy one.

If you find yourself needing to remove interlocking garage floor tiles, you can either remove individual tiles until reaching the damaged one, or, you can lift an entire strip up still pieced together, remove the damaged one, replace it, and lay the strip of tiles back down.

If the garage tile is a harder plastic snap together product that will not stay together in strips when lifted, you’ll have to individually remove tiles, beginning with the one that was last laid and working backwards in a triangular fashion until reaching the one needing to be removed. This would be the case for removing tiles with hidden interlocks, whereas puzzle style interlocking tiles do not require disruption of any of the other tiles.
