Need to lift a tile

[WetSaw]

What sort of height is the pipe? Is it in your eye line at all, sitting on the loo etc? Unless it's going to be an absolute eyesore I'd be tempted to leave it, you may end up causing yourself far more work.

It's about 95cm from the floor, above the end of the bath at the opposite end from the shower and taps. I got them level and clipped them up, but somehow I've caught it. it will mean the towel radiator isn't sat straight, unless I can get some kind of threaded adjuster for the valves.

You've got threaded inserts where the valves go into the rad. You'll easily lose a few mm on each without it noticing ( you'll only see it because you know it's there..). What will possibly show more is the pipe being off centre to the hole, shrouds solve that and as you haven't used chrome pipe, chrome pipe covers could tidy it all up. If the pipe is the one nearer the inside corner of the bath, a casual observer will never see it if you leave it like it is anyway and just Silicon around it.

Yes, I think you are right, I'll get it set up and see. Thanks again

Ended up taking the tile off, chipping the adhesive off and that enabled me to got the pipes level again and recut a new tile. All sorted, thanks for the help
