Re: How to repair a cracked floor tile?

Hi @yckim

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's wonderful to have you join us, and thank you for sharing your question about repairing a cracked floor tile. 

 

Generally, the ideal repair option is to remove the damaged tile and replace it with a new one. However, the odds of the crack spreading are very high when repairs are being applied. If you wish to fill the crack instead, I suggest using Earl's 500g Concremate Expanding Cement. But before applying the filler, I suggest removing the damaged piece if possible. 

 

Please make sure to use safety gear such as gloves, goggles and a dust mask when mixing the concrete. My number one tip is to mix only what you need and seal the container in a resealable sandwich bag for future repairs.

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

 

Eric
