Trying to get that busted tile off the wall will be a right old fig...
in my experience pulling tiles off a plasterboard always ends up pulling half the board with it...
good luck
 
If he’s got a spare tile, smash it with a hammer and pick the bits off. New piece of plasterboard, jobs a gooden.

Alternatively, give the job to a tiler, have a professional job done, absorb the cost, and make the customer happy.
 
Appreciate all the responses gents. I was back there today and spoke to the customer, it's a 12th floor flat in London so no garage or much spare space at all where any spares may have been lurking. The bath is tiled completely so haven't been able to check under there just yet.

Soap dish idea seems a good one, or some other accessory so will float that idea next week. I know really my boss should be absorbing the cost but I am just doing what I can to remedy the situation without it costing him. If I can find a tile the same colour he said he'll give it a go himself so we'll see.

I'll report back with the outcome, but for now it's Friday. Have a good weekend chaps.

Good luck mate . It is nice to see a person with principles. I hope it works out for you.
