Tile Resurfacing
Give outdated tile a fresh, like-new finish
If your tile is cracked, stained, discolored, or simply outdated, you may not need to tear it out and start over. Tile resurfacing can completely transform the look of your bathroom or kitchen while preserving the existing tile underneath.
Michael’s Resurfacing refinishes ceramic and porcelain tile throughout Northeast Kansas. As part of the refinishing process, we clean and repair broken or cracked tile, restore damaged grout, and prepare the entire surface for a durable new finish.
The result? Tile and grout that look brand new, are easier to clean, and can last 15+ years with proper care.
Tile Repair Is Part of the Refinishing Process
A better finish starts with proper preparation.
Years ago, tile repair was often a standalone service. Today, many homes have patterned, textured, or specialty tile that can make individual tile replacement more complicated and difficult to match.
Because of this, Michael’s Resurfacing typically performs tile repair as part of a complete tile refinishing project.
Before refinishing, we:
- Clean the existing tile and surface
- Repair broken and cracked tile
- Clean the grout lines
- Repair or replace grout as needed
- Prepare the entire surface for refinishing
We then float a layer of sandless grout over the entire surface. This creates a consistent foundation and helps prevent pinholes from developing in the new finish as it cures.
Once the surface is properly prepared, we apply the professional refinishing system to create a smooth, durable finish that transforms the appearance of the entire space.
Transform the Tile in Your Kitchen or Bathroom
Michael’s Resurfacing can refinish a variety of ceramic and porcelain tile surfaces throughout your home, including:

Whether your bathroom feels stuck in another decade or your kitchen tile has simply seen better days, resurfacing can give the space a completely refreshed look without replacing the existing tile.

A Fresh Finish That's Built to Last
When the project is complete, your existing tile can look brand new without the disruption of a full tile replacement. Refinishing allows you to transform outdated colors and finishes while preserving the tile already in place. Cracked or broken tile and damaged grout are addressed as part of the preparation process, then the entire surface is refinished together to create a smooth, consistent, sealed finish.
The result is a surface that is easier to clean and maintain, with grout that stays cleaner and a cohesive, updated appearance throughout the space. With proper care, a professionally refinished surface is expected to last 15 years or more. Michael’s Resurfacing also stands behind its workmanship with a 5-year warranty against adhesion failure, giving you added confidence in the durability of your refinished tile.
