Use a grout saw to cut all the grout loose around the perimeter of the tile you wish to remove. A Dremel or equivalent multi-tool with the grout removing attachment is easiest to use. Use a hammer and chisel to break the tile from the center and work toward the edges.
Step 1: Remove the Tiles. The first step is to remove the trim running along the wall or doorways. Begin at one corner of the room, hammering your crowbar into the grout between the tiles. This will separate the tiles from the mortar or thinset backing adhesive. Then you can use either the crowbar or chisel and hammer it underneath the individual tiles at an angle. Doing so at an angle will separate the tile or break it into pieces you can then remove.
