How to install bathroom accessories without damaging tiles

Towel rails, shelves and holders: how to choose positions and drill tiles safely.

In a bathroom, comfortable height is not the only concern. Before drilling, consider joints, pipes, cables, tile type and whether the accessory will carry weight or be pulled.

1

Choose the position

Simulate real use of towels, paper or products and check that doors and drawers can open.

2

Check utilities

Avoid areas aligned with taps, drains and electrical points when hidden routes are unknown.

3

Controlled drilling

The right bit, low initial speed and no hammer action on the glaze reduce risk.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Drilling too close to an edge
  • Using hammer mode from the start
  • Bonding over silicone

THEVULGO tip

Keep spare tiles if available. Even with careful work, they are useful for future repairs.
