Mortar is a cement based paste that is used for binding building materials like bricks tiles and stones. And it s great for creating durable surfaces.

One method involves drilling a series of holes in the relatively soft clay of the brick then chiseling the brick out in pieces.

Wedge the pry bar in underneath the putty knife. Removing mortar from concrete slab floor can be tricky. Once it is remove the knife and then wedge the pry bar up in order to remove the brick. Yet when you need to remove it it can be a nightmare.

This may take some effort. However this method leaves the harder cementitious mortar in place around the brick which can be rather difficult to chisel away once the field brick is removed. Slip a pry bar under the putty knife and pull out the putty knife. But if you pull up old tiles it may be something you will have to contend with.
