To replace a loose or broken ceramic tile in your bathroom.
Remove loose or broken tile.
Take your tile to a home improvement center or tile shop to get a replacement tile/tiles to match.
Purchase a small box of powdered white tile grout (its cheap) and a bottle of weldwood household glue.
Clean out all loose bits of tile and grout in the area to be repaired.
In a small plastic dish mix some of the powdered grout with the glue until it is a very thick paste.
Coat the area to be repaired with a thick layer of the grout paste and press the new tile firmly in place.
The paste that squishes out around the edges can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
This method eliminates the need for messy tile glue and makes it easy to get a nice white grout repair at the same time in one step.
Although the glue/grout paste can be removed with a damp cloth while wet, once dried it is waterproof and the tile will never loosen again.
You may also use the glue/grout paste method to repair loose or missing grout around tiles without removing the tile if it isn’t loose.
Good hints, Beagle.
