Filling radiator holes in tiling

[IE00]

Hi,

We have quite large holes in our slate tiles for our radiator pipes. I have attached photos. Any ideas on how you would go about filling these?

I'd piece in a neat cut of tile, and fill the rest with the same grout you've used elsewhere.

I'm not a tiler tho, but I do a decent job any time I've tiled something.

The pipe expands and contracts so the grout will start disintegrating. We have one done that way and one with chromed plastic covers around the pipes. Never notice the covers, do notice where the grout has cracked.

iku00,

On March 8 you were given advice, and asked various helpful questions. You did not answer the questions or acknowledge the post or even give thanks for the response.

I'd also insert a piece of cut tile, but I'd leave the square round the pipe and fill that with a grey mastic.
