Greetings.
I am wondering if anyone has any handy techniques for shaving off bits of kitchen tiles.
The previous "electrician" has installed inadequate shallow back boxes in the kitchen and stuffed as many cables as he can in them and then stuffed the fused spur lid on top, it's a total mess and dangerous too as the insulation on some of the cables is going.
I need to take out the old back boxes, chisel out more wall and fit deep back boxes and then replace a load of cable.
The trouble is the tiles have been put on over the corners of the back box. I just need to cut a slice of tile away to give me the space to get the old back boxes out.
So my question is if you were to cut away a slice of kitchen wall tile what would you use.
I was thinking of maybe using a dremel with a mini grinder blade just to cut along the section of the tile I need to remove, it should then snap off. A bit fiddly but it should work.
Has anyone any better suggestions?
Thanks.
