My grout is cracked and missing in places. How much does it cost to regrout?

By

You recently purchased your first home and knew when you decided to buy it that it would need a few repairs and improvements to look its best. The bathroom was the place you wanted to tackle right away.  At first, you thought a new coat of paint, a brighter light fixture,  and perhaps new faucets and handles would do the trick, but after a closer look, you notice the tile grout is cracked and even missing in a few spots. As nice as new tile or re-grouting sounds, you don’t have the money for it,  but you know the issue has to be fixed before it becomes a bigger problem.

You start to search for alternatives and discover that Miracle Method Surface Refinishing not only offers tile refinishing services, but tile grout repair is part of their process. They will permanently seal your existing grout lines while applying an amazing stone-look finish to your tile shower.  With a vast array of colors to chose from, you’re sure to find one you like.  You’ll be left with tiles and grout lines that look like new, are easy to clean and maintain, and, best of all you save a lot of money for those other updates!

We can’t find a matching tile after plumbing repairs. Do I have to retile the entire surround?

By

Unfortunately, tiles are often broken during plumbing repairs of tub faucets and when that tile is no long available, you’re faced with the potential of replacing the entire tile surround.   Mismatched tile is not exactly a designer look and replacing all the tile can be expensive and you’ll be doing without the bathtub for about a week, not to mention the messy demolition.  You’ve heard of surface refinishing and start to search for a company that can repair and refinish tile.

Your search leads you to the Miracle Method Surface Refinishing website, where you learn that for a fraction of the cost of replacing the tile surround, Miracle Method will refinish the tile to look like new.  As long as we have a replacement tile of the same size and texture, it’s a simple fix.  The new tile is put in place and grouted.  Once done, the entire surround is refinished in your choice of colors, including one of our Natural Accents™ stone finishes that will give your tile that upgraded makeover look. Refinishing typically saves 75% over the cost of replacing and most work can be completed in two days or less.

Before: Tiles are damaged and in need of repair.

After: Repair and refinishing by Miracle Method leaves the tile surface looking like new!

Do DIY tub painting kits really work?

By

Many people purchase homes that are less than perfect with the thought of fixing it up.  That fix up usually includes a bathroom with out of date colors on the bathtub and tile.  You can only stand a green, pink or yellow tub and tile so long, but tear out and replacement is expensive.  DIY tub and tile refinishing kits sold in Home Depot or Lowe’s appear to be a solution,  but you need to think this through before your open that box and use it.

Ask yourself…Would you repaint your own car? Refinishing involves many of the same skills and materials used by professional auto body craftsmen. When you consider that 25% of all work performed by Miracle Method is redoing someone’s attempt to refinish a bathtub, you should think twice before using a DIY bathtub refinishing kit on your bathtub.   Additionally, using a DIY kit will usually only camouflage the problem or fail to adhere – causing you to spend more time and money on a solution.

An affordable alternative is to have the professionals from your local Miracle Method Surface Refinishing franchise refinish your tub to a like-new look and feel. Our process includes many steps that are not in a DIY kit, such as removing the old caulk, a thorough cleaning of the tub’s surface; the application of our MM-4 bonding agent, which will ensure the new coating will endure; porcelain chip repair if necessary; several coats of our high tech acrylic urethane to make the surface event; buffing and polishing to create a high gloss shine that will resemble new porcelain and application of new caulk. Best of all, our process is completed in two days or less and is with savings of up to 75% over the cost of replacement.

Before: This  old green tub and the surrounding tile is in need of a major update…

After: The  tub and tile are bright and look like new!
