"Dale and the Grout Masters crew did an awesome job replacing a dozen broken porcelain tiles in our kitchen. Dale was prompt in providing a very reasonable quote, communicated well, and went the extra mile to make sure the job was done right. Our original kitchen contractor had not properly adhered the tiles to the underlayment. Grout Masters replaced the broken tiles, painstakingly stabilized all of the other loose tiles, perfectly matched the existing grout, and cleaned and sealed the grout in the entire kitchen. This time, we are confident that the work will last! We are now considering Dale and tear for our bathroom remodeling tile work. Highly recommend!"

"We used Sam to fully remodel our master bathroom and do some cosmetic work in our guest bathroom. We took down walls and started completely from scratch. Sam did all of the demolition, prep work, plumbing, electrical and installed some very intricate marble mosaic tile, for us on the floor of the bathroom and in the shower. Sam is punctual, responsive and extremely knowledgable about his craft. His men do incredible work when it comes to the finishes and he keeps a very clean workspace. All along the process Sam was present at the job and addressed any minor issues we had along the way immediately. You will not find any better bang for your buck in this area. I highly recommend him and we just hired him again to do even more work in our home."

"Pablo is the ultimate professional. He guided me through the tile selection process to ensure I purchased products appropriate for my needs. He followed up with a pre-installation visit to ensure there were no unforeseen issues that could negatively impact the installation schedule. The job was completed on time and on budget! Additionally, he was able to offer advice regarding another tiling project; advice that will save me both time and money. I could not have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend Dream Tile! I will 100% use Dream Tile again."

"CJ Claros was excellent. We had a grout/leak problem in two of our stall showers - problem with the original installation years ago. CJ completely rebuilt them for us and then retiled them. He was so careful with the original tile that he was able to reuse them so we didn't have to buy all new tile. That saved us thousands. His work was impeccable, neat and performed in a timely manner. While he didn't have to, he replaced the damp insulation and fixed the ceiling in the room below that has a couple dime-sized water stains. He did the work the right way - as if it was for his own home. I will absolutely have CJ Claros return for additional projects that we are planning."

"I hired The Grout Medic to repair and clean my master bath shower. The builder's grade grout was falling out, and looking grungy. We needed to list our home for sale. They left it looking better than brand new! He took half a day and cleaned up completely afterwards. I should have hired them when I was living there, the shower was so nice after he finished! Very professional customer service as well."

"Zavala was hired primarily for floor tile replacement; but job evolved into a bathroom refresh/renovation. Floor tiling was geometric and not an easy lay. From day one to completion of the project, Mr. Zavala demonstrated a “spirit of excellence” in performing every facet of the project with attention to details; integrity, which is a rare commodity in the contractor industry and a genuine desire to insure project met both mine and his high expectations. Appreciated meticulous daily clean up until project completion. Zavala Construction (Wulian) now rests at the top of the list for my TWO preferred “go to” contractors."

"This harsh winter, the pipes burst because they froze. Ariel helped me repair the leak; the roof was completely damaged, and he repaired it and even painted it?it looks brand new. I'm so grateful for his willingness to help, as he didn't mind coming at night despite the bad weather. That boy is an angel sent from heaven."

FAQs for tile: ceramic and porcelain repair projects in Arlington, VA

People use the terms refinishing, resurfacing, and reglazing interchangeably. Refinishing is a process that repairs old tiles and gives them a fresh new coat of finish. This is also called tile resurfacing or reglazing.

Yes, you can refinish tiles as a DIY project, but it’s important to follow all the steps involved. These include the following:

  1. Clean the tiles or hire a local tile cleaning service to remove all the residue (soap film, oil, grease, and dirt).

  2. Etch the tile to ensure the refinishing solution adheres properly.

  3. Fill in any cracks or chips in the tile.

  4. Recoat the grout.

  5. Repair any missing or damaged caulking where applicable.

  6. Apply the refinishing product, primer, and enamel.

Your newly reglazed tile should last between 10 and 15 years with proper installation. However, higher-traffic areas and moisture may result in a reduced life span. Explore the cost of different tile types to determine which material works best for your home and needs.

Your bathtub and tile refinishing cost will likely seem like a small price to pay for the transformation it offers. Provided your tile and grout are both intact, refinishing will bring a brand-new style at a fraction of the cost.

Yes, most ceramic tile is paintable with specific epoxy or tile paints. However, you’ll want to avoid areas of heavy use or moisture, such as countertops, showers, and bathtubs. Paint can crack, bubble, or wear away over time, especially on floors.
