how well do you think htis will work on cement tiles?

I think it will do fine but get add'l blade for back up. This is a small job saw. If you're doing big project rent a bigger ones.

Sorry, I don't know. I used mine to cut ceramic tiles, slate stone and glass tiles. The only ones it had trouble on were the glass tiles. Otherwise, it cut the ceramic and slate tiles very easily.

I'm not quite sure what the dimensions are on what your trying to cut especially the thickness. I've used mine on travertine which is very hard and it cut just fine. It's all in the blade. I've used this type of blade on a circular type saw and able to cut concrete patio blocks. You would be limited on thickness with this saw.

It would depend upon the blade and thickness of the tile. I have used on just about everything. Glass, porclean, marble, and ceramic. I have found that I don't "force" the tile and let it do it's own thing works better.

i bought mine for accoustic & mud only, but if your spraying mortar mix & thin it enough, i'm sure you could, but only it your tring to create a finish look of some type. might get runny on you since it would have to be mixed fairly thin. just can't say for sure since i've never tried it. as for the cement flashing. never worked with it, so i really don't know? i can tell you, what ever you spray, as with all hoppers of this type, it has a pretty big pattern and goes all over the place! not sure what you're using it for, but if it's for a cement textured finsih, good possiblity it might work with the right pressure & thinned enough. it's cheap enough to give it a shot. good luck ! i bought mine for accoustic & mud only, but if your spraying mortar mix & thin it enough, i'm sure you could, but only it your tring to create a finish look of some type. might get runny on you since it would have to be mixed fairly thin. just can't say for sure since i've never tried it. as for the cement flashing. never worked with it, so i really don't know? i can tell you, what ever you spray, as with all hoppers of this type, it has a pretty big pattern and goes all over the place! not sure what you're using it for, but if it's for a cement textured finsih, good possiblity it might... » Read More i bought mine for accoustic & mud only, but if your spraying mortar mix & thin it enough, i'm sure you could, but only it your tring to create a finish look of some type. might get runny on you since it would have to be mixed fairly thin. just can't say for sure since i've never tried it. as for the cement flashing. never worked with it, so i really don't know? i can tell you, what ever you spray, as with all hoppers of this type, it has a pretty big pattern and goes all over the place! not sure what you're using it for, but if it's for a cement textured finsih, good possiblity it might work with the right pressure & thinned enough. it's cheap enough to give it a shot. good luck ! « Show Less

Yes I think it would work on tiles,it did a very good job of chips in the bath tub so I cant see why it would not work on tiles as well.

I haven't tried them on tiled floor; they should work except, possibly, over grouted areas.

Yes it can...it will work wonders without crumbling the grout...but it STINKS

I can only assume it will. I don't have tiles in my home to test it on. They probably should be smooth tiles though.

No it will not work. Of course it depends on the tile. But if it is a ceramic tile or a marble with a slick smooth surface it will actually just wipe off like using a crayola marker. It would need some texture or some sort of porous surface.

It would work. But you would need the right drill to pre drill through your tile without cracking it.

I see no problem with it on cement as long as there are no sharp objects to puncture the liner. The pad will probably compress to almost nothing from the weight of the water. I would not set it upon paver stones because of the sharp edges associated with them .

I took a left over piece and tried it for you. It seems to work and look okay. My tiles have a good amount of grout inbetween them and it still looked okay.

Yes they will work on cement it will work on any surface. However depending on how rough the concrete or cement is they will wear quicker because they are only plastic.

I used a premixed thin set on the hydro barrier I applied to the concrete Hardyboard. It sticks very well. Here is one of a series of good links on how to do it. Note this guy does not recommend glueing tiles in a wet environment. While more work, concrete board last longer. It is very important to waterproof thoroughly. When I removed the old tile/wall board I found an ant "Garden of Eden" behind it. Very important to cut off their water. http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_457202&feature=iv&src_vid=xmzEKU4YLpk&v=D1-v070N0WI

Yes. The FloorMate does a great job on tile, not so great with the grout though.

Yes this will work for you as long as you use a flat chisel bit to remove your tile. We use it all the time to break up well compacted ground when hand digging.

I agree; if the tile is ceramic, I don't think it would ever make it. Vinyl should be no real problem.

I'm traveling now and do not have access to the package instructions, but I expect it would do fine with concrete. I used in for multiple holes in porcelain tile which in my experience is much more difficult to drill than concrete. I would NOT think it's a good idea in a rotary hammer. I used it on a slow to medium speed with plenty of water and it worked great. I expect a rotary hammer would be detrimental to it's longevity. I would call Dewalt's customer service for their take on it. 800- 433-9258.
