Big slide roller broken under fridge

I have a 2019 Fleetwood Discovery LXE 40M. The roller under fridge on big slide is broken. In shop for repair. The broken roller gouged two tiles. Looking for ideas on how/ if repair can be done.

Did you get some replacement tiles with your Discovery? It's not an easy job but can be done. Matching the grout might be the hardest past. When chipping out the grout save some and take it to a flooring place to see how close they can come to matching it.

First off, Welcome to iRV2!

I would contact the REV group to see if replacement tiles are available. Also, I would ask them about grout for the tiles. When I replaced one of our tiles, I bought grout to match from Tiffin as it was a special semi-flexible grout. Standard home tile grout is not flexible and may crack over time.

The coach came with replacement tile and grout, if you can find the original owner, the tile may be available.

Bad news is if the frig roller broke, the ones on both sides of that roller are probably broken too, and possibly others. Next bad news is the repair shop is probably going to put the same under rated rollers back in. There are seven rollers under the slide and five of mine were damaged when I repaired them.
They need to be built up to a stronger structure before putting back in.

Raustiff, You can call Fleetwood RV (800) 509-3417 or (800) 854-1344 and give them your coach information. They may be able to help you with tile matching. I agree with alank, plan to upgrade the rollers, rather than going with the previous OEM rollers. Fleetwood may be able to help with that also, but they are available in lots of places. 2019 is pretty new to have a major failure like that. Best of luck,

We have a 2020 Fleetwood Discovery LXE. Same tile. We bought new so we have a box of tiles. Not sure about grout. Hit me up if you are unable to source tile from manufacturer or dealer.

Just a warning. I had two tiles break on my Discovery and the tile set is not the same as used in residential use and removing them is a tough job including covering the inside of your rv with plastic. Additionally; the grout is a different kind than regular grout to keep it from cracking.

Brian,
Can't source tile anymore. Been discontinued. Would it be possible to get four tiles? I have the grout.

Brian,
Not sure if you got my reply but can get new tiles anymore from REV. If your not able to sell me any replacement tiles, just let me know. I will try and go in a different direction. Thanks.
