Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Can this tool cut porcelain tiles?

This tool is best suited for ceramic and wall tiles. For harder tiles like porcelain, a tile cutter or wet saw is recommended for cleaner cuts.

Yes! The Vitrex Chisel Headed Nipper is user-friendly for DIY home renovators while being durable and efficientenough for professional tilers.

Q: Can I use this tool to remove grout?

No, this tool is designed for cutting and lifting tiles, not for grout removal. A grout removal tool would be more effective for that task.
