"This contractor was excellent in every way! Showed up on time everyday, cleaned up the work area before leaving and was professional, friendly and HONEST. Best of all he finished early and UNDER BUDGET - which is super rare in the construction world. I love my new floors, highly recommend this company and will definitely hire Explosive City Tile again! THANKS COWBOY for your professional and excellent work!!"

Customers say: Quick response

"So I spent the last couple weeks scrambling because I was trying to repair and replace a chipped cracked tile in my kitchen from a tenant dropping a very heavy object on it. These are very large format, wood plank porcelain tiles that are 5' x 1 feet and have proven to be very challenging to work with without chipping in the past. I reached out to a couple tile companies and only heard back from one, but they were booked out weeks. I found Jason on Angie's list and not only was he able to squeeze me into his schedule in two days he completed the work like an absolute artist. He was able to surgically remove the tile with ease without cracking any of the surrounding tiles and pop the new one back into a place like a pro. So happy that I reached out to Jason. Though I pray for no more damage by anyone else on the future, I definitely will be hiring him in the future if this ever happens again. "

"Never having used Angi's before, we were shocked to receive such an immediate response to our request for help in replacing some badly broken tiles in our kitchen. We listed the job on a Saturday night, got a call from John (JB Tile & Stone) on Sunday morning, and the following morning he was at our house to discuss what we needed done. Since we only had about a dozen replacement tiles (and they were no longer available if we needed more) we were understandably nervous but appreciated his honesty on the challenges of removing the broken ones without damaging the ones we needed to leave in place. Based on his obvious experience and the reviews we read from satisfied customers, we decided to go ahead with the project. Our confidence in his abilities was more than justified. The work took place over 3 mornings. He arrived early and did exactly what he said he was going to do each day, i.e. carefully removing the broken tiles and old adhesives, then setting the new ones in place and finally grouting the newly tiled areas. We could not be more pleased with the end result and consider ourselves lucky that John was the one who responded to our call for help."

"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."

FAQs for tile: ceramic and porcelain repair projects in San Diego, 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.
