How do I Hide a Cracked Tile?

This is an extremely common question. In fact, we have heard this question more times than we can remember. On several occasions, we have shown up to a home where a different company had attempted to do this very project and it didn’t turn out exactly as intended. Why? Well, in some cases, you can’t actually hide the cracked tile due to underlying issues that will continue to cause a problem with the appearance of your tiles. For example, if your subfloor is shifting or you have any air pockets beneath the tile, then the tile will simply have to be replaced – there is no tile repair option here aside from completely replacing the tile. Don’t be fooled by companies that promise to remedy your tile’s appearance with a process called “color sealing the crack”. This is really a short-term, extremely temporary solution to your long-term problem. If you’d like to learn more about how you can hide your cracked tile or find out if it’s even an option, call The Grout Medic of Central New Jersey today at 732-876-9835.

If your tile or tiles are completely broken, then you’re going to need to have them replaced. While the cheaper option may be much more alluring, it’s not the best approach. The primary reason for this is that your tile will continue to degrade in appearance and it’s best to rely on a professional tile repair and replacement company than to attempt to hide the problem. Just as with anything else, if it’s a problem now, it’s better to address it sooner rather than later. The Grout Medic of Central New Jersey is the premier tile and grout company in the area and we’ll ensure that your tile and grout is brought back to life.

So, if it sounds too good to be true, then it’s most likely not true. If another tile and grout company offers to color seal your cracked tile, you should probably obtain a second opinion. Cheaper isn’t always better and this couldn’t be more true when it comes to the appearance of your home’s tile and grout.
