Built-in ceramic-tile towel bars and soap dishes sometimes break. When they do, they're hard to replace. Do you have a broken built-in accessory that's bugging you? If you can't find a suitable match or replacement, chisel out the old sections. Remember first to wear safety glasses, and put towels down to protect your sink and tub. Then scrape and clean the wall behind. At this point, decide whether you want to replace the broken pieces with same-size tiles or take this opportunity to be creative. You can remove the whole adjacent row, which allows adding a spiffy designer touch or two. If you do, there are scads of great new tile options from hand-painted designs and raised surfaces to the latest trend -- shiny metallic trim pieces in brass, stainless, pewter and gold. Whatever you select, just butter with adhesive, put it in place and grout the joints once it sets. Got a broken built-in that's bugging you? Ditch what's old and add something new. And that's the On The House tip for today.
