Hi All , I have recently moved into this Edwardian house and have been restoring everything i can slowly. There are some beautiful octagon tiles in the hallway but they are damaged in places over the years.
Some tiles are cracked ,some has worn out in the middle (like a dish) ,ones near the door are lifted up (water got under from the door?) and some have movement in them when you walk over.
The tiles are laid on some rubble and ash as far as i can see .
I have since managed to buy some identical reclaimed tiles and would love to restore this floor to its former glory. I have googled a while but cant seem to find much detail on specific methods for the restoration.
Is there a guide out there ?
More importantly is this something i can tackle as a fairly good diyer or should i be looking for some professional help ?
here are some photos , thanks for answers in advance.
