Cutting floor tiles

[Rachh863]

Hi,

I may have to cut some floor tiles that are in a bathroom underneath the shower tray. It will just be the edges so not too bad but I'm not sure what to use to cut them as obviously I don't want to crack them. I was thinking an angle grinder - the only blade I have for it is for cutting stone, concrete and brick I think - would this blade be OK to use?

Any advice would be great, thank-you.

If you only have a few to cut ask a tile shop, Else hire a wet tile saw for a day, wont cost much

It depends on your tiles,if they are ceramic the stone disc may do it,if they are porcelain then it would need to be a diamond one.Usually about £10 or so.

Hi, thank-you for that, they are ceramic - Just would hate to crack them! I'll give it ago with the tools I have then. Thanks again

If the cuts are straight a standard score and snap cutter will do it.
