Porcelain Refinish Repair questions, answered by experts

Many homeowners have successfully retiled a bathroom themselves. It can be a challenging but rewarding process, but it’s best for someone who already has at least intermediate DIY skills.

You can take a sample of your existing grout to your local hardware store and ask them to match the color. For the most accurate results, choose a sample that hasn’t been discolored from wear and tear. You can also try to clean the floor tile grout to get it closer to its original color.

Silicone caulk shouldn’t be used in place of grout because each material serves its own purpose. Thanks to its flexibility, silicone caulk is good for sealing around the perimeter of tiled floors, where movement and expansion might occur. However, grout is more durable, making it a better option for the joints in between tiles, which need to withstand constant weight and foot traffic.

To prolong durability, use quality sealants, avoid dropping heavy objects, perform regular maintenance checks for water leaks, and keep the tiles clean.

Porcelain and ceramic tiles are made from clay, but porcelain tiles are fired in a kiln at a higher temperature. This makes them more durable, but it also means porcelain is more expensive than ceramic at $3 to $5 more per square foot.

Even with the higher price point, many people choose porcelain over ceramic because there are more color and design options.
