What to use to fill holes drilled into tiles

Post by lambertbeechcroft »

I've had a workman come and do some tiling for me in the bathroom, he boxed in the pipework and tiled over it, looks nice, however he also drilled out a couple of circles through both the tiles and the boxing, so that we could get to the pipes to isolate the radiator if we needed to. He said that he would get a couple of "Beazles" (not sure if this is the right term), that would fit into the holes, but that was about 3 years ago. I'm not sure where to get the said beazles from, and I'm getting a bit fed up of waiting, anybody got any advice?

Many thanks

Hi, and welcome to the forum.

What size are the holes roughly?

I think the workman that fit the tiles means blanking plugs-

I think the word you were refering to is "bezel", which is a surround or mounting to hold another item or component.
Treat everyone like they are a rich distant relative, in whose will you'd like to be remembered.
