Tile + Grout Maintenance and Repair
Shower Re-caulking
-
The most common structural deficiency is grout cracking in corner joints where perpendicular surfaces meet. This is a common issue because lots of installers use regular cementitious grout in these corners, but due to slight movements in the house, they require a flexible substitute.
Though, even when these joints are siliconed, if improperly installed, they can develop mold, prompting replacement.
-
Our repair process consists of color matching the silicone product as closely to the existing grout; then masking every joint needing repair, for a crisp look and easy clean up
-
This repair is generally broken up into two repair scopes (that can be scheduled right now below!), Half Shower Re-caulk, and Full Shower Re-caulk.
A half shower re-caulk costs a flat $400, while a full shower re-caulk is $650.
Seal-Coating
-
Seal-coating tile can be use for many different applications like:
Seal porous natural stone to prevent staining and promote easy maintenance
General promoting of easier maintenance no matter the type of tile
Preserving the longevity of grout
Changing the sheen of a tile
Creating a non-slip surface while keeping the sheen of the tile unaltered
-
Clean all tile with a specialized tile, or natural stone cleaner
Apply sealer
Buff off sealer
Re-apply if needed
-
$6 a square foot for porcelain or ceramic tile
$8 a square foot for natural stone tile
Annual and bi-annual seal-coating maintenance schedule (Annual scheduling saves 10% on square footage price, bi-annual saves 20% each scheduled maintenance)
