We have fitted underfloor heating to our kitchen floor. Unfortunately a couple of the tiles now have hairline cracks. Can anyone suggest how best to fix this please - removing the tiles could maybe break the circuit? The tiles are cream - can someone recommend a filler/paint for them otherwise? Many thanks.

The only way to fill would be a matching coloured grout.
But if the tiles have cracked it is better to cure the cause not the symptoms.
What is the subfloor ? timber on screed/concrete. What adhesives & grouts were used? were the tiles solid bedded? How long was the adhesive left to cure before turning on the heat? Ceramic, porcelain or stone tiles?
Let us know all the details then we can advise you better
