Marble tile difficulties
Help!! Living in Spain with abundant use of marble tiles through the house. Original workmanship is not great, and in the main bathroom the tile installation is particularly poor, with straight-edged tiles butted together - with varying degrees of gap. I'd like to get in between the tiles and V-notch to be able to take a grout, but struggling to get an effective marble cutting tool to provide a consistent 'V'. Appreciate any suggestions.

Hi Margeo,
personally, I would run a 4in grinder with a diamond blade carefully between the joints, if your grout doesn't fill deep enough it will just crack out after a time.

Measure twice, cut once!
