"After having 4-5 quotes on remodling our shower, right down to the studs, we hired Alex at Southwest Flooring and Tile. He did an excellent job showing us alternative ways we could build our shower, all within our budget. His attention to detail was great. He worked with us to find the best deals to stay within our budget. He was always on time, honest and very hard working. He works with a great plumber to assist with the new drain and pipes. (Peace of Mind Plumbing) Alex did an amazing job, and I would highly recommend him to anyone. You will be glad you called him!"

"I looked on-line for a new tile setter after mine moved out of town. After four bids, I chose Daniel of Art Tile. He showed up on the day and time he said he would. I'm a house contractor who had him work on my own house. Work is beautifully done and he was pleasant to work with"

"Mr. Grout replaced our outdated kitchen tile and the results are absolutely stunning! The attention to detail is impeccable and the price was very reasonable. A true diamond in the rough discovery that I will use for all of my tile and grout needs."

FAQs for tile: ceramic and porcelain repair projects in Longboat Key, FL

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.
