A: When working around outlets or switches during tile installation, prioritize safety and precision. Begin by turning off the power to the outlets or switches at the breaker box to avoid electrical hazards. Measure and mark the location of the outlet or switch on the tile carefully. Use a tile saw or tile nipper to cut the tile to fit around the outlet or switch accurately, ensuring a snug fit. Take your time to make precise cuts, as mistakes could lead to improper fitting or tile damage. Test the fit before proceeding with installation. Finally, secure the tile in place using adhesive or mortar, ensuring the outlet or switch remains accessible for future use. Thank you for your interest in MSI Alaska Gray Ledger Panel 6 in. x 24 in.
