How to disguise a cracked wall tile.

dbab, May 14, 3:01am
We have a handyman "helping" us remove 1 tile so that we can put in a powerpoint. He has badly cracked the bottom edge of the adjoining tile. As we don't have any more spares, is there any way to disguise the damage? Thanks for any help.

We have the tile to fit the power point. Its the one next to it that has been damaged.

What sort of powerpoint and how far from powerpoint is damage? A photo would help.

Fill the crack or break with a glue tinted with gold dust.

The Japanese call it 'kintsugi' and it enhances rather than disguises the accidents of use.

Yes either stainless steel/ white plastic rectangle cover bigger than the power point , or same coloured silicon

Depending on the colour of the tiles perhaps you could use an auto touch up paint. You can get them in little bottles with a brush like fingernail varnish. Also appliance touch up paint available in similar bottles.

One f those frame things that go round powerpoints.

Or if it's small, nail polish
