What to use to fill a gap between bathroom and hall?
July 20, 2010
When installing a wooden floor through our flat over a year ago, a small section of the bathroom mosaic tiling broke, and was removed by the floor fitter, now as we are trying to sell out flat it doesn’t look very nice. The gap is around 1-2inches by 24inches.
We cannot find any replacement tiles that are similar enough to just put in, the ones we bought seem to be discontinued now. The gap is too wide for ordinary grout as far as I know, a local tile shop recommended I use cement to level up to the tile level and then paint white.
Any other suggestions?
It is a doorway, I’ve attached a photo here:

Is this at the doorway? My suggestion would be a marble threshold. That’s pretty common for bathrooms and come about 3"-4" wide. Marble is pretty soft so you can even shape it in case the surfaces of the wood and tile aren’t the same height.

Why don’t you visit a home center & look at aluminum threshold plates. It won’t look too bad & give your flat a ‘finished’ look for resale.

was this a mosaic you made yourself.. I am a lil confused but it is early here still lol
I would invest in a box of tiles you love .. and replace with ones that match the best ..
the mosaic are they print match a solid color.. if they are solid match a timeless print.. and save teh box… more will break.. I would slowly piece them in .. I love imperfect look ..
But I am slightly confused as in where it is …the doorway.. there isn’t one of those spaces that would be big enough to cover the throughout the door .. or how about beveled crown molding layed down.. idk..
got any pics? lol

I like the marble threshold idea. It looks as though it would cover the missing tile part as well as the wooden edge piece, and having only the marble (and not it and the wooden edge) would look deliberate.
