Whatever you do, don"t try getting the tile out by hacking away at it with a hammer or screwdriver. You may just break even more tiles, or worse still injure yourself. If you ... have a spare tile left over then you could try replacing the tile with that or alternatively choose a feature tile maybe with a pattern. Follow these simple steps:
- Remove the grout around the damaged tile so it is completely separate from the other tiles.
- Drill a hole into the centre of the cracked tile.
- Start at the centre and carefully chip away at the rest of the tile.
- Clean the surface and prepare for the replacement tile.
- Use adhesive to place the new tile in position.
- Wait for a day or two and then grout the area around the new tile.
Job done! If in doubt, get an expert in. It may be cheaper than replacing the damage you do.
