"Going with a stacked tile backsplash we were very concerned about alignment and precision, which had been an issue with a previous tile contractor. To our delight, Jason's attention to detail was higher than even our expectations. We couldn't be happier with the final result of our tile backsplash, and of all the pieces of our remodel puzzle, the process and experience was the smoothest. We will definitely use him again for future tile projects, and we have already starting recommending him to others."

"If you're looking for exceptional work, look no more! such a professional and courteous group of individuals that provide quality work. They were able to install flooring in two days and really made sure we were happy with the final results. We couldn't have picked a better team of installers and Luis really went above and beyond for us and was a pleasure to work with."

"We couldn’t be happier with the work done by Rene and his team. They installed a new backsplash in our kitchen and the quality exceeded our expectations. The attention to detail was outstanding. They were thorough with the cleanup after the job was done, which made the entire experience even better. It’s clear they take great pride in their work snd care about their customers. I recommend R.G. Tile to anyone looking for high-quality tile work and exceptional service."

"Fantastic! William was really professional from beginning to end. He likes to get an early start and is super punctual. He was very good at listening to my requirements, making suggestions, giving advice, and following my special requests, which was very reassuring. His co-worker, Santiago did an excellent job of laying the porcelain tiles in a brick pattern. They carefully prepared the area first (including removing the toilets and putting down a Hardybacker surface on the original chipboard flooring) and so it went very smoothly and quickly once the tile laying began. They also carefully planned the tile pattern so that everything was lined up very nicely and looked well-spaced in all the areas upon completion. He also kept all his equipment together and cleaned up everything afterwards. I extended the project by adding on a few extra caulking jobs around the house (bath/shower/vanity) that William gladly did to help everything look refreshed and clean. I'm planning on using Tile Master for another project soon once I can decide on the tile I want in my master bathroom!"

"I have not had previous experience with tile and grout issues previously, but the folks from Grout Medic were personable, professional, prompt and presented quality work at a price point I felt was reasonable and justified. I'd use them again and would recommend them to others. Thumbs up to Grout Medic!"

"Jose was friendly, responsive and personable. His experience allows him to easily give solid advice. He recommended a few countertop vendors to find the quartz we chose. We paid for the material separately. JM Tile and Stone took care of picking up the slabs, cutting/gluing/polishing. H Cabinets was our vendor and sold us two quartz slabs, unfortunately one with sun damage that Jose buffed to help equalize the color. I’d advise the purchaser to pick/inspect/approve the slabs before finalizing pickup. Preapproval would alleviate the problem we ran into. Overall the process took a week from start to finish and the kitchen looks beautiful."

FAQs for tile: ceramic and porcelain repair projects in National City, CA

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.
