replacing tile

I just noticed one of the tiles in our kitchen is cracked. I have extras. Can just one be replaced?

Yes, but you will probably have to sacrifice the surrounding few tiles in order to remove that one tile.

So you'll have to do a few of them.

Oh good! We have plenty of extras so a few more wouldn't be a big deal.
Thanks!

Re: replacing tile

We just replaced two cracked tiles in our kitchen without any issues. We didn't have any others break when we removed them...you just have to take your time and be careful.

Re: replacing tile

Just remove the grout around the broken tile, break up the broken tile more so it comes out. Clean up everything in the new opening. Either use a little tile adhesive, or some grouts (like the one I bought recently at HomeDepot) works as an adhesive and a grout. Once it dries, just regrout around the new tile. Should be pretty easy.
