Hi Guys
Ive just joined this and am asking all tilers for their help. I have just had a radiator replaced with a heated bath towel rail and its unfortunately left broken tiles behind it that need replacing. Ive measured the current tiles and they are at 19.5 x 14.5cm - which i understand is a size that is no longer done.
Ive attached a photo of the problem. Any advice would be much appreciated. Current tiles (i think!) are ceramic and white.
Thanks all
Abi

PS- Im a total novice- having never grouted a tile in my life (if thats the phrase!)

If those tiles aren't available any more maybe worth considering stripping the tiles off behind the rad or that wall and redoing in a contrasting colour .
 
And much better than trawling through various websites like gumtree to try and find them. Unless there's a known large used tile company which I doubt?
Thanks again
Abi
 
If you can find out where originally sold them you may find they have some in stock somewhere but it's a common situation this and you tend to find ranges change quicker than the tiles break.

The contrasting colour option sounds wise to me..!
 
Thanks Dan. Think that's the best route to go. Now to find someone to do it in the nw1 area. Thanks again
Abi
