What happens to the old countertop material during removal?
The removal crew breaks up the old surface (laminate, tile, or stone) and hauls it away. Tile removal in particular can damage the drywall or backer board behind it, which may need patching before a new backsplash is installed. Ask the fabricator whether wall repair after tile removal is included in scope.
Can my existing cabinets handle new quartz countertops after tile removal?
In most cases yes, but it depends on the condition of the cabinet boxes and their level. Quartz is heavier than laminate but comparable to tile. The fabricator will inspect the cabinet tops after removal and flag any issues before templating. Severely damaged or out-of-level cabinets may need repair before countertop work can proceed.
