Drilling through tile…?
My grandpa’s bathroom needs to have a few adjustments made to it, namely safety bars put in place around the tub to help him in and out. The problem: every wall is covered in glazed tile (which I know makes a difference) and the bars need to be screwed in.
My question is this: how? I know that using just a drill bit will shatter the tile, even a carbide one because the tile’s glazed.
Thanks much, kisses and ten points to the best answer.
get a drill bit for ceramic tile and buy the proper anchors’ prefit your safety bars so that when you drill your not on the edge of any tiles. drill at a low speed and try to spray water while you drill to keep the bit cool. as you are going through the tile, ease up on the pressure a bit and you should have no trouble.
