You could substitute in some walk on glazing.

I laughed but then felt a pang of guilt that @Pocster is always at the arse end of jokes. I'm not even sure I get the joke as I've read a lot of the threads on here and don't feel I've read about what must be a hell of a story. 🙃

You know what I said out loud when I read your reply ? “ (expletive deleted)ing (expletive deleted) (expletive deleted) bastard mofo (expletive deleted) “

I suppose it could be worse .

This is a utility room - any different tiles wouldn’t be seen from the doorway . Got some spare black bathroom ones I could use in the centre . When you can’t hide it make a feature ?? 🙄

[Pocster]

Or rip up the others in the centre ? I.e so there’s a strip running the length of the room . But my gut instinct is getting them up will be a bitch !

I think best is to not bother with a “ strip “ nor attempt to match ( and fail ) . So tile half differently so it looks deliberate. But with what ?

[ProDave]

Tile the WHOLE utility room different.

 

Keep the rest of the white ones as spares for the other rooms.

But that means ripping them up ! I’m not sure how easy that will be !!

You should have counted how many you had before you started that room.......

[ProDave]

Surely a utility room will have a sink unit or something, put the odd ones under there?

Nah ! It’s not really an anything room .

Anyway I kind of guessed they’d be coming up . Tiles aren’t to bad - cleaning the ditra not much fun !

Lay what you can, then fill where the missing ones go with some concrete.

Then cover in cheap vinyl flooring.

I did contemplate doing a bodge like that . But I won’t ever sleep knowing the hideous thing I’ve done . The other hideous things I’ve done I can live with !

[Iceverge]

Get the best match you can. 

 

Dry lay them. 

 

See if you can tell the difference. 

 

If you can rip up the rest of the old tiles and finish it with the new tiles.
