How To

How to Replacing a Broken Tile

Step 1: Remove the old tiles.

You can remove the old tiles from your floor and save them. If you plan to use these tiles later, it is important that you keep them in good condition. Note which pieces are missing or damaged to avoid having to search for replacements.

Step 2 – Choose New Tiles

Look at these different options for replacing tiles.

Find a tile that is identical to the one you are removing.
You can use the measurements taken when you removed the tile to locate a matching piece. This will allow you to quickly find the right size, without having to measure again.
Find colors, patterns textures, sizes and shapes in all possible combinations.
If you have a preference for grout, consider what it would be best to use. Some people prefer a certain color, others like to mix it up.
Make sure the tile you select is resistant to moisture.
Finally, consider the placement of your new tile -- you can save time and money by ensuring the area you're installing it in has enough space for proper installation.
Once you've found the tile that suits your needs, you can place your order online.

Step 3: Install the tiles.

To install your tiles, follow the same procedure as before. It is important to align them correctly so they fit together properly.

Step 4: Clean Up

Before putting down the final layer of protective material, clean up all the debris from the floor.

This will prevent dust and dirt from building up between the tiles.

Step 5 – Sand down the floor

After you have cleaned everything, sand the floor to remove any particles that were left from the previous step.

Step 6 – Finish Off

Once the floor has been completely smoothed, apply the protective coatings on the tiles. Because wet paint can cause damage to the tiles' surfaces, it is important that you wait.

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

But it won't address every issue that might arise after installing your new 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.
