JP Glazing: Professional Tile Refinishing Solutions
Why Refinish Your Bathroom Tile?
Tile refinishing provides a solution for updating dated colors or repairing damaged surfaces while maintaining the structural integrity of your walls and floors. The process seals existing grout lines and creates a waterproof barrier, addressing common issues like moisture penetration and mold growth. This approach preserves the original tile installation while providing a fresh, updated appearance, especially beneficial in vintage homes where original tile removal could damage underlying structures.
Common Issues:
Discolored or stained grout lines
Cracked or chipped tiles
Outdated colors/patterns
Mold and mildew buildup
Loose or missing tiles
Hard-to-clean surfaces
Water damage
Worn or dull finish
Understanding Tile Types and Refinishing
Ceramic Tile: Common in bathrooms from the 1950s-1980s, ceramic tile features a clay body with glazed finish. Refinishing considerations include:
Proper surface preparation of glazed surfaces
Grout line treatment and sealing
Custom color matching for vintage tiles
Specialized bonding techniques
Porcelain Floor Tile: Denser than ceramic, these durable tiles require specific approaches:
Non-slip surface creation options
Heavy traffic area preparation
Grout sealing for moisture protection
Enhanced durability coatings
Natural Stone Tile: Found in luxury installations, these require careful handling:
Specialized surface preparation
Sealer compatibility testing
Proper pH-balanced treatments
Custom finish matching
