Ok a while ago I dropped the microwave on the tile in the kitchen floor. Well to be truthful it fell out of what I thought was a secure location. ;D But anyway I have three cracked tiles and really like the looks, so I was wanting to replace them if I can fine the right one's. Is this something that can be done with out to much trouble. or should I tare up the hole floor and just redo it.
I was also thinking about adding some led sheeting down if I tore it all out, The Gen in right under the kitchen and it's a bit noisey not bad but you know when it's running. As I was thinking of that I realized I would have to take out all the floor cabinets and Iam not sure if I would get the results Iam hoping for. Any thoughts Thanks Andy

tile tough to match.   if your cabinets have a false bottom in them (dead air space) between bottom shelf and floor.drill 3/16 holes and use expanding tuff stuff foam in a can as extra insulation/sound deadner above genset area. Tile is not all that expensive sometimes less work and time to just replace whole area.   Bob

Andy ceramic tile is not that hard to match I am thinking Gary Bennett installed the tile and knowing him it came from HD or Lowes
