"Greg is a true professional. Very creative with our two tile mural projects. He was very proficient in taking out the existing tiles that were within a tiled boarder on our stucco patio walls and replacing with the new murals. First of all it was very difficult to find the exact size murals that were the dimensions of the former murals. Greg, with his years experience, suggested various alternatives. What a craftsman! The end results were terrific! You would never know that the new murals were a replacement. He is very tidy with his clean-up at the end of the day(s). I am looking forward to my future project(s) with him. I definitely recommend Greg for any tile projects! Thank You!"

FAQs for tile: ceramic and porcelain repair projects in Palomar-mountain, 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.
