"First of all, Jake was very quick to respond for an estimate. Throughout the estimate process, we changed a number of things along the way and Jake was very prompt in adjusting the estimate to the revised work. When we finally agreed on the details, he set a schedule. In a miserable snowstorm, he showed up at the appointed time on the appointed day and began the tearout. It went smoothly. When he started to do the install, he explained several options for certain things such as the size of the niche and he adjusted his layout accordingly. We wanted a glass tile mosiac running from floor to ceiling at the valve and showerhead. He scalloped the edges of the tile rather than cutting the glass. It is magnificant. We had purchased an expensive glass shower door from Your Shower Door a couple of years before and hoped to use it in the new shower. Jake worked with that company to get the specs of the opening exact so that the door reinstalled perfectly. He knows all the latest materials, procedures and techniques. He worked on Saturday and Sunday in order to complete the job in a very timely manner. Cleanup was meticulous. A true professional. PS - when Your Shower Door came to reinstall their product, they were so impressed with the scalloped wall tile, they had to take a picture of it for future reference."

FAQs for tile: ceramic and porcelain repair projects in Grand Haven, MI

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.
