Tiled over beading

[george121212]

Hi my bathroom window is cracked.

The previous owner has tiled over the beading on one horizontal and one vertical side.

Apart from the obvious which is removing the tiles any suggestions how I can change the glass just by removing only two bits of beading? Or any suggested alternatives?

Many thanks

take the other two beads out, i reckon you can get a scraper in there to get those two ' tiled over ' ones out ( doesn't look like the edge of the bead , where it meets the frame , is actually covered by the tilling in those pictures ), actually relook ing yes it does , very large beads ... try scraping some off the grout out, you need to get at least one of those beads out to remove the glass... or completeyly break the glass unit and pull uit out ... carefully due to shards of glass

Thanks for the reply Ronnie.
Going to try and get the side vertical bead out by scraping grout out.
Will leave the top bead in and try and swing it in.

Thanks for the advice.
