"Wade and his team are quick and efficient. I had them tile my entire house 8 years ago and had them come back to put in quartz countertops. They do a great job. Thank you again!"

"I had a broken piece of stone in my kitchen countertop, right in the front of the sink. There was a vein in the stone that I think water got in and eventually caused a crack. Eran quickly came and quoted the job for me and did the work the next day. He did the job fast and cleanly. The stone repair could have been a little smoother in my opinion, but it is well sealed and the glue matches the stone well and nobody will ever see the repair. While he was there, he re-caulked the entire sink to prevent that kind of crack from happening again. All in all, a great experience."

"Wow Bob is a perfectionist. When he is finished you can no longer tell where the problem was. He is cleaned and tidy. Took tiles back to his home to renew and to remove all the messed that was behind the tiles. I am very happy with the results, and I highly recommend him."

"We had some problems communicating initially. Bryan said that my emails had gone to his spam. But the job was done well, all in one day, and it looks great. The workers were friendly, worked hard, and did good work, cleaning up after themselves before leaving."

"After getting a number of quotes for doing the tile in our bathroom, we decided to go with Jose and JC Tile, and now that the job is complete, I can say it was the right decision for us. Communication is very important to me, and Jose always responded in a timely manner via phone and text message throughout the entire process. In my opinion and from a previous remodel experience, it is important for as many details to be discussed and noted prior to approving any contract. We agreed on work to be provided, and they surpassed my expectations. In addition to Jose, Norman and Randy were the crew members on this project, and my family appreciates their professionalism, work quality and in asking questions when it came down to decision making time for tile lines and options available. My kids liked everyone, which is unusual for strangers who come over to the house. The whole JC Tile team was flexible and worked with me on making everything discussed come to fruition."

FAQs for tile: ceramic and porcelain repair projects in Palm Desert, 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.
