How To

How to replace a damaged tile

Step 1: Take away the old tiles.

Removing the tiles from your flooring is a good idea. If you plan to use these tiles later, it is important that you keep them in good condition. You can note the parts that are missing or damaged so that you can find replacements.

Step 2 -- Choose New Tiles

Check out these options for tile replacement.

  1. Find a new tile that's similar to the one you removed.
  2. To match a tile, you can use the measurements you took after removing it. This makes it easier to get the right size without having to measure again.
  3. Find colors, patterns textures, sizes and shapes in all possible combinations.
  4. Consider what grout you prefer to use. Some people prefer solid color; others enjoy mixing it up.
  5. Choose a tile that resists moisture.
  6. The final thing to consider is the location of the tile. It will save you time and money if you make sure there's enough space for the proper installation.
  7. Once you've picked your tile, place an order online or call your local Lowe's location to place it.

Step 3 - Install the new tiles.

Use the same method as before to install your new tiles. Be careful to align them properly so they fit together perfectly.

Step 4 - Clean Up

Clean up any debris on the floor before you apply the last layer of protective material.

This will prevent dirt and dust from settling into the cracks between the tiles that could cause mold.

Step 5 -- Sand the Floor

After everything has been cleaned, sand it down to remove any remaining particles from the previous steps.

Step 6: Finish off

Apply the protective coatings once the floor is smooth. Wait until the floor is completely smooth before applying the protective coatings to the tiles. Wet paint could stain the tiles' surface.

For stain protection, you can always use a product called "damp&dry" to clean your floors.

However, it will not cover all possible problems that may arise after you have installed your tiles. For example, if you have a lot of kids running around, you may want to consider using an anti-slip coating on top of the protective layer.

And finally, remember to leave the protective sealer on for several weeks before moving back into your home.
