How To
How to replace a broken tile
Step 1: Take away the old tiles.
Removing the tiles from your flooring is a good idea. These tiles should be kept intact in case you need them again. 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.
-
Find a tile that is identical to the one you are removing.
-
To find the matching piece, use the measurements that you took while removing the tile. This will make it easy to get the correct size without having again to measure.
-
Consider looking for colors, patterns, textures and sizes in a variety of shapes and colors.
-
Consider which grout you would like to use, if any. Some people like a consistent color while others prefer mixing it.
-
Make sure the tile you select is resistant to moisture.
-
Consider the location of your tile. You can save both time and money by making sure that there is enough room for proper installation.
-
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. It is important to align them correctly so they fit together properly.
Step 4 - Clean Up
Be sure to vacuum up all crumbs and debris before applying the last layer.
This will keep dust and dirt from getting into the grout between tiles, which could lead to mold.
Step 5 -- Sand the Floor
After cleaning everything, sand down the floor to remove any loose particles left behind by the previous step.
Step 6 - Finish Off
Once the floor is completely smooth, apply the protective coatings to the tiles. Because wet paint can cause damage to the tiles' surfaces, it is important that you wait.
To help prevent stains, you could always use a product called 'damp-anddry' on your floors.
But it won't address every issue that might arise after installing your new tiles. If you have children, an anti-slip coating may be a good idea.
Remember to let the protective sealer remain on for several additional weeks before you move into your home.
