The first step is to bust the old tile using a hammer then chisel out the remaining pieces.

Check the backer board for damage and repair it using the same material required by the manufacturer for proper waterproofing.

In this example, the shower was waterproofed using Wedi. If the blue foam is broken use Wedi joint sealant to waterproof it.

If RedGard was used to waterproof cement board, apply two layers over the area where the tile use to be.

Once the backer board is waterproof apply thin-set mortar to the area for the new tile and back butter the tile with the mortar. Set the new tile on the backer board and use horseshoe shims to ensure grout joint spacing.
