Ceramic Tiles

There are several advantages to refinishing ceramic tiles. The biggest advantage is the huge cost savings over ripping out the old tiles and replacing them, which could cost thousands of dollars. Cost savings are 70% over ripping out and replacing!

Another advantage is that the grout lines are covered to prevent mildewing, however, they still remain visible which makes the finish walls look like new tiles. You can change the color of your tiles even if they are Flamingo Pink, Avocado Green, Powder Blue, or Harvest Gold.

The process of refinishing ceramic tiles is similar to bathtub reglazing.

1. Ceramic tiles are cleaned and acid etched to dramatically increase adhesion. If existing grout lines are cracked, they will be filled.

2. The surface is solvent cleaned and the bonding agent is then applied.

3. The areas are masked off and the several coats of epoxy primer are applied.

4. To finish the job, several coats of acrylic urethane enamel are applied.

The drying time for tiles is twenty-four (24) hours. The process for one entire bathroom, including the bathtub, sink, and tiles is typically one day. However, sometimes it may take two days. Compare this to a complete renovation of your bathroom and you save days, if not weeks, of down time.
