The Reglazing Process
You are probably wondering what the process of reglazing the tiles involves. Don’t worry about it; there is no construction work involved. In other words, you don’t have to worry about our contractors making a mess in your bathroom or kitchen. Here is the basic process of resurfacing wall and floor tiles:
- The area around the tiles is masked to prevent the agents from getting on any of the surrounding surfaces.
- First, the grouting is removed, but only if it is necessary. In some cases, the tiles don’t need regrouting.
- All the chips, dents and cracks are repaired. We want to makes sure the tiles look like brand new after we’re done resurfacing them.
- The surface of the tiles if thoroughly cleaned. In some cases, we may even sand down the tiles.
- An etching agent is applied so the surface of the tiles becomes porous. This ensures the bonding agent is properly absorbed.
- The bonding agent is sprayed carefully over each tile uniformly.
- After about 30 minutes, the coating agent is applied. If necessary, a second layer of coating may be applied.
- The coating should be left to cure for up to a week. This means you should not use any cleaning solutions on the tiles.
