Replacing cracked ceramic tile. Making it easy.



                  This unique tool makes removing a cracked tile much easier than it used to be.
The blade is used for removing the grout, the thinset and can cut various materials with the wide variety of different blades to choose from.


  1. First tape off the surrounding tiles. While I am removing the grout with the grout remover the surrounding tiles don't get damaged. Then using a steel putty knife, hold it against the good tiles to protect them from any damage while removing the grout.This is not totally neccessary, but if there is a small grout joint it will help protect the surrounding tile.
