Cutting a tile in situ
Hi,
I am replacing a shower tray. The old one had sloping sides the new one (plus platform) will have vertical sides. As the tray was let in to the tiles I need to straighten up the sloping cut on one of the tiles to make it vertical. I would prefer just to cut it in situ but this seems to have a potential for ending in tears. I don't have any spare tiles - I could just hack the tile off and use a white replacement but would prefer to keep the existing tile if possible. So - score gently with an angle grinder (hah!) then cold chisel off? Prise off the wall intact (hah!) cut and refit? I really need a way to 'nibble' a tile edge whilst it is fixed to the wall. Has anyone found a good way to do this, or am I just likely to waste a load of time bugggering about and then end up replacing the tile anyway? Cheers Dave R |
