Loose tile - TilersForums.com

[weka]

Hi


I have a floor tile that is loose on one end where this end is not flush with the surrounding neighbours but a couple of mm's higher. When you step on this end it will flex down to the flush level. The grout in this end is mostly loose and I have removed it. Is there anyway to fix this without breaking this tile (I do have a spare one) and making it flush again? I mean can you inject adhesive and then put weight over the tile so its level after its dry or it doesn't work that way?

Any advice would be much appreciated thanks.

if you have removed the grout and the tile is loose it should just pop up

No the other end is still fixed and grount is still there thats why the tile is flexing.

Im going to go out on a limb and say you will have to smash it up and replace it..

remove all the grout and see if it will lift , tiles are not usally bendy so it should come up if not replace it
