Repair coating tile. Change the broken tile with your own hands

Sometimes there may be a situation where it is necessary to replace the damaged tile or even a whole area of \u200b\u200bthe tiled floor. Such cases are possible, if for example, the installation of floor tiles was incorrectly performed, when laying were used non-quality materials Or the tile on the floor was subjected to any mechanical exposure that caused the destruction of individual tiles. Finally, the tile can simply wear out and lose its aesthetic look.

In any case, there is nothing terrible in this. To bring the tile of tile, it will not be necessary to overhaul with large investments of forces, means and patience. It is enough just to replace the new tiles that have come into disrepair, and you can do it with your own hands. However, in order not to repeat such operations in the future, due to unintentional errors, it is necessary to do it qualitatively.

Preparation for the repair of the tile

Before proceeding to independently repairing a tiled floor, carefully examine this question from the point of view of available modern materials and technologies, as well as your ability to own required tools and availability of skills in different types home repairs. As for the tool, there is an alternative to interchangeability (for example, if you do not have a stoveture, you can use a glass cutter or just a sharp nail), and the skills can be purchased across the floor sections suitable for this.

Evaluation of the situation

First of all, it is necessary to estimate the status of the tiled floor, your desires and opportunities in the proposed order:

Character of damage:
chips and scratches on the surface of the tile or in the corners;
dug tile;
destruction (unattractive view or severe pollution) of intercutric seam (grouts);
destruction (disorders of integrity) tiles;
Damage degree:
Small, medium or deep scratches or chips;
Damage that may result in the dugout of neighboring tiles;
No damage (cosmetic seam color replacement or tile).
The magnitude of the damage site (the number of tiles of the tiles of the tiles):
one tile;
several tiles;
interprehensive seam (grout) near one or more tiles;
Full or partial cosmetic seam or tile color replacement.
Repair type:
repair scratch or chip of a separate tile;
seam repair (replacement of grouts);
tile replacement;
Cosmetic seam color replacement or tile;
floor repair in the bathroom, in the kitchen or other room (everywhere there is its own characteristics);
repair tile on warm floors, on the wooden floor (Technology may also differ).
Available resources for repair:
Available required amount Tiles for replacement (always try to acquire a tile with a margin for such cases);
Insufficient number of replacement tiles (it will be necessary to clarify what the current price is on the tile and purchase, taking into account the item above, an additional amount of it);
None in the presence of a replacement tile (think about the question designer solution on the use of another texture or purchase the same tile, if there is such on sale, given the necessary tile size);
There is no on sale of the necessary texture for replacement (if it is very easy to try and the amount for replacement is small, then you can carefully remove the tile from the areas under furniture or other places in sight, and replace it there with a suitable size).

Required tools and materials

To dIY repair The tiled floor in addition to resources did not take away and your additional efforts, prepare in advance everything you need according to the next list:

the required amount corresponding to the texture, tile;
cement;
water;
capacities for the preparation of the required mixtures;
construction mixer or drill with a special nozzle to mix the mixture solutions (or a conventional rack to knead a small amount of compositions);
special glue for tile or liquid nails;
grout, soil and antiseptic;
if necessary, paint for tile;
if it is assumed to be sealing, silicone sealant;
set of crosses or SVP (tile alignment system);
required metal and rubber spatulas, trowel;
roulette, iron line, simple pencil and construction level;
perforator;
bulgarian or logs for cutting tiles;
a hammer;
chisel, chisel, chisel and special nozzles on the punch of the tile;
fixtures for cutting tiles (glass cutter or tiles, grinder or jigsaw);
the tool for removing the old grout from the interputric seams (Read more reviewed in the section for the repair of intercinecy seams);
protective glasses and gloves.

Here is the maximum list of materials and tools for working with tiles when repairing a tiled floor. However, the list must be adjusted, taking into account the volume and type of upcoming work, as well as the available skills of circulation of various tools, the presence of the tools themselves and the possibility of their interchangeability.

Performance of work on repairing

Repair of chips and scratches

To eliminate such a tile defect, like a chip or scratch, follow these steps:

Prepare a solution from cement and water (use the cooked container and a mixture mixing device) for what:
Use water only room temperature;
The temperature in the room where the work is carried out, maintain in the range of 18-25 ° C;
Pulling into a container with water cement, stir the mixture with a prepared device (so as not to be formed in a mixture of lumps, in no case do not pour water into the cement, and raw cement to water);
Check the desired consistency of the mixture using a trowel or spatula (the mixture should not drain from the trowel, and be plastic and held on it).
Slip the solution into a crack or chip, using a small piece of soft tissue.
Wait for the solution to dry and evaluate the result.
If the crack or chip is not fully filled, repeat the operation.
Remove the excess mixture from the tile surface.
After reaching a complete filling with a fracture with a crack or chip, carefully apply to a completely dry area of \u200b\u200bdamage to the corresponding color to the paint (try to avoid getting paints on the intact surface of the tile, otherwise the repair point will be noticeably).

Gluing a born tile

If a tile Just dug up, but remained the whole, then return it to the required state by completing the following actions:

Using the chisel and the iron spatula (or another suitable tool), free the tile from the facing along the edges of the tile from the facing and clean the seams (act neatly, trying not to damage the adjacent tiles, the technology is described in detail in the section Repair of interline seams).
Following the appropriate tool, remove the tiled tile.
Clean the inner surface of the extracted tile from the remains of the old solution (use a spatula and a chisel, pre-dug off the remains of the old solution in water).
Make on cleaned from the old solution and grouts, repaired floor section, a screed with a thickness of 1 mm.
Declaring and loading the surface (you can additionally handle the surface with an antiseptic).
Moisten the tile with water (if it is not a cement base, then leave the surface of the tile and the floor dry).
Apply the tile adhesive prepared according to the instructions on the package to the inner surface of the tile (the glue layer is selected taking into account the alignment with the overall surface level of the floor) using a toothed spatula.
Insert the tile with the adhesive makeup to the former place and press it well for a uniform distribution under the glue tile.
Check the building level of the flattening surface.
Remove the excess glue around the perimeter of the glued tile.
Fix the intercine gaps with the help of cross or SVP.
After 5 hours, remove the locking plastic crosses (or SVP) from interputric seams.
After the cladding is completely dry (from 1 to 3 days), fill the gaps between the tiles prepared, according to the instructions on the packaging, grout (the process will be described in more detail below in the section on the repair of intercinecy seams);
If the tile changed in the bathroom or indoors where sealing seals are needed, then use silicone sealant for this. The sealant will protect the tile and the interc seam from the penetration of moisture, which can harm them. In addition, the sealant is used to seal the slots between the cafeter and the bathroom or other plumbing.

If necessary, the linings of the adjacent floor of the plots adjacent to the tiled tile are repeated.

Replacing the tile endaged

In many ways, the replacement process of the tile has become unusable to the new one, repeats the above-described tile described when crossing the tile. Therefore, in this part, we consider only those actions that have not been described earlier. This action will remove damaged tiles. To do this correctly, use the following tips:

You should not remove the old tile from the ends, otherwise you risk damage the neighboring.
To safely remove the replacement for neighboring tiles, it is desirable to destroy the tile with a hammer in the central part.
From the center of the tile to its edge, without hurrying, small fragments, with the help of a chisel (chisels) and a hammer, continue further destruction of the tile.
Punches on the surface of the tile, apply the edges of the chisel or the chisel from above, and not form.
Use the vacuum cleaner to remove the remaining small particles and cement dust.

Repair or replacement of interputric seam

The poor-quality material for the grout of the seams between the tiles, the violation of the technology of decomposition or preparation of the mixture, as well as mechanical impacts on the intercutter filling lead to its permission. In addition, dark spots of mold can appear in premises with high humidity on the seams.

To correct such flaws, you can partially or completely replace the old grout to the new one. To do this, follow these steps in order:

Remove the old grout. Act very carefully and carefully not to damage the whole tile. Work with special caution in the corners of the tile. The corners of the tile are very sensitive to mechanical exposure and can break. Use:
Special tool - the seam exchange (go through the seam, directing the blade straight and at an angle from both sides) or;
any sharp tool using it as well as the seams (spatula, sewn, screwdriver, chisel, knife, etc.) or;
Shabra (electric or manual);
If the putty is very old and firmly rests between the tiles, a drill is suitable with a drill with a thickness (in diameter less than the distance between the tiles), the dremel with a special nozzle (engraver, bor-machine, mini drill, etc. - group right Grinding machines), electric chisel or Bulgarian.
In addition, there are also non-mechanical ways:
A solution of vinegar and water, in proportion 1: 2 - is used to softening the seams (applied with a soft cloth for a while at least 20 minutes);
citric acid solution for removing latex or cement mixture;
Special solvent for removing the mixture epoxy composition (We carefully read the instructions for use in order not to damage the surface of the tile).
Clean the seams from dust and small particles with a vacuum cleaner.
Process the purified interlocking space by an antiseptic agent.
Prepare a grout mixture (knead the solution in proportions and by technology contained in the instructions for use on the grout packaging).
Moisten the seams with a small amount of water (use a sprayer or ordinary painting brush).
With the help of a rubber spatula, fill out the interlocking space.
Remove the excess mixture from the tile surface using the same rubber spatula and sponge (or soft tissue).
Eliminate unevenness in the seams with a sponge (soft tissue or wipes from viscose) dipped in water.
Wait for complete grout drying.
Evaluate the work and if necessary, then eliminate the shortcomings of the technology described above.

The tile floor looks expensive, but without proper care loses its aesthetic qualities. Making the tile repair on the floor from zero spending and long, so many prefer to perform a cosmetic procedure. Repair of ceramic tiles on the floor can be performed on its own, the main thing is to observe the subtleties. Talk to what methods can be fixed appearance Your sex.

What is more profitable way

There are several ways to bring the floor from the ceramic tile in order. But first it is necessary to estimate the front of the work. Inspect the floor, which tiles need to be replaced, and where to refresh the seams. Cracked tile could for several reasons:

Broken screed;
Glue applied unevenly;
From a strong mechanical effect on the surface.

Depending on the damage, calculate how much material needs to be purchased (take with a slight stock). If the store does not turn out to be a tile, you can show fantasy and combine the material close on the texture and color.

It is important to use high-quality glue. Do not save, choose: Plovetonite B, B +, C (price from 370 p.); Ceresite cm 11 (from 410 p.); SM11 Plus (from 265 p.). Imported glue, especially German, more efficient and better. The price of it is lower, but it depends on the quantity you need. Standard glue is sold in bags of 5, 10, 15, 25 kg.

It is more profitable to replace individual links of mosaic, but if at the autopsy you saw that the screed cracked, you will have to change a large plot.
Photos are increasing, press!

Installation - subtlety and main stages

To replace and repair a tiled floor, you will need the following materials and tools:

Perforator.
Glue for tiles.
Level.
Grout for seams.
Cement-sand mixture or ready-made dry composition
Construction mixer.
Capacity for kneading glue and tie.
Spatulas (rubber, simple, toothed).

Repair of the tile on the floor requires accuracy, so if the hands "grow no sound" and patience is missing, beat your nerves and take advantage of the services of professionals. Price repair work It starts from 350 r. / m2 and depends on complexity and volume.

You can perform repairs in your own other stages:

Customly cracked links with the help of a perforator. You also remove the screed under it, for 1 cm, for further alignment of the tile.

1. We mix the new screed from sand and cement (ratio ½).

You can take a ready-made self-leveling mixture, for example: Forward cemopol (price from 170 p.). Working with the finished tie is easier and pouring it faster.

Plug the composition into the resulting hole so that the gap remains. Self-leveling screed on top of a slightly rush, in order to come out air bubbles. Leave to dry out.

With the help of a spatula, we make a pillow of glue. The composition is necessary on top to align wavy movements. Waves are needed for the best hitch with material.

With the help of a toothed spatula on the technical side of the tile we apply glue composition.

Important! We insert the link in your place and align with a level. If the tile is high-quality, then it is possible to knock on it with rubber Cyans. For a fragile material, such an appeal is unacceptable. Let the glue dry the day.

2. Establish the grout of the seams.

A rubber spatula is taken and put the grout into the formed seams. At this stage, you can refresh the adjacent seams, slightly removing the old layer and putting the new one.

A few minutes later you can remove excess grouts with a sponge for dishes or special. To do this, it is wetted with water and rub the seam until there is a divorce.

Important! If the tile just moved from the floor, then you need to act dramatically. The departed links remove and remove the old glue along with a part of the screed. Most likely, the previous styling is incorrect and technology is not met, or the glue was used the lowest quality. Next, we do the same as in the first case.

You can perform a small cosmetic repair of tiles in a bathroom or a sauna with your own hands. But if you use low-quality material to work, then repeat the procedure will not be less than once in half a year. Therefore, for repair, use high-quality compositions. The house is our fortress and save on its repair!

Tile coatings are considered one of the most resistant to natural wear and damage to any kind, but it happens that they require attention. In addition, not always during the repair, the laying of the tile is reinstalled, and the stolen, lighted and worn areas against the backdrop of the new interior will be released by non-accuracy stains. Meanwhile, knowing some professional secrets and tricks of builders can be easily, quickly and no less than qualitatively perform the repair of the tiles with their own hands, without spending tremendous means to complete the coating, nor on expensive services of qualified brigades.

Why does the tile fail, or how to avoid its repair?

Most often to the disappearance of the tile and the appearance of its damage leads various errorsMasters in the process of laying. The most common of them are considered:

poor preparation of the surface of the wall or floor;
incorrect dilution of cement mortar for gluing;
inactive tile handling, leading to the appearance of microcracks, which, with further operation, with any light impact turn into chips and cracks.

In addition, in the process of operation, the tightness of the tile connection with the base is disturbed, the moisture falling under it quickly destroys the adhesive layer. Therefore, it is very important to monitor the state of intercutric seams and to carry out the necessary repair of ceramic tiles in a timely manner.

If we talk about the paving slabs, then the aggressive impact of atmospheric phenomena, as well as the increased risk of damage by falling on the surface of heavy items, is added to factors that adversely affect the durability of the coating.

Compliance with technology when laying, careful handling of material and proper operation All will allow for many years to forget about the need to repair tile coating.

Tile or ceramic tile

Types of repair work

Most often, the repair of tile is the installation of a dropped tile in place. Often there is a need to replace the old damaged coating. For example, when the tile kitchen is repaired after the transfer of furniture or decor items to another place remains with holes from fasteners. The old lined seams, which absorbed dust, fat and other dirt and lost the original color look very aesthetically.

If on the tile of chips and cracks ...

If the reserve of the tile is not left, and the store failed to pick up suitable material To replace, cracks can be seen by "cement milk".

"Cement Milk" is a water cement solution, without adding sand, a consistency reminds real milk.

For this, it is necessary, gradually pouring a solution to the surface of the tile, rub it with a rough piece of fabric into a crack. For better penetration, it is necessary to do this in two directions: along and across the crack. Deeper chips and depressions can be completely pouring into this solution and change after drying.

In order to achieve greater strength of a filling crack solution, it must be slightly moistened for another two or three days.

If a whole tile disappeared ...

... Do not panic and try global repairs with the change of all coverage. This tile can be easily returned to the place. If the tile left not to the end and rests a little more, it is necessary very neatly, with the help of a chisel or bit, remove from its nest.

Then painstakingly prepare the base for laying, otherwise it will be very soon to face the same problem. To do this, remove the entire balance of glue or if the tile repair is performed on the floor, knock out the whole old cement mortar to the base. After that, it is necessary to clean the surface from the slightest particles of dust and other contaminants and slightly moisten it with water.

Attach the tile again in several ways:

On silicone sealant, and it is better to use white than a transparent with less durability.
On liquid glass. In this method solution liquid glass It is necessary to mix with an ordinary dental powder.
On zinc bleel. In this case, it is necessary to process the olifa base per day before the tile fastening.
On cement mortar.
On tile glue.

In the last two versions, when preparing the surface of the base, it is necessary to go down to 3-4 millimeters into it. Such a stock is necessary in order for the laid tile not discharged due to the adhesive layer.

For better adhesion, any adhesive composition applied to the tile, you need to dissolve with a toothed spatula.

If you need to replace the tile on the new ...

To begin with damaged tiles must be deleted. It is easier to do it, if you pre-get rid of interputric seams, for example with the help of a spatula.

Next, thin drill drill the holes around the circle in the center of the tile at the close distance from each other and slightly hit this part. Now, inserting chisel into the resulting band, carefully rolling damaged tiles, while trying not to damage nearby, of course, if they are not to be deleted.

The next step must be careful to clean the whole tiles from the residues of the cloud composition, and the base is from the old glue. After that, it is necessary to make sure the integrity of the surface, before sticking the tile, even shallow potholes should be seen. Do not neglect the primer, it will help to achieve maximum flattering the basics.

After the tile is glued into place, be sure to check the correspondence of its remaining coating. If she acts, then a simple tapping will help to put it in the right position, but if, on the contrary, the tile is drowning among the others, it must be removed and add some amount of glue.

The seams between only laid tiles should be embellished not earlier than the adhesive composition will dry.

If the intercutric seams look not very ...

If the seams between the tiles lost their attractive look or covered with mold, do not panic too. Building stores have many solutions to cope with these problems.

In the event that the grout is partially (or even completely) sat down, you will have to work a little bit. After all, it will need to be completely replaced in the whole room, otherwise the renewed area will stand out among the others. Of course, you can try to choose a remedy with the most suitable color, but it is rarely possible.

So, you first need to clean the entire tiled surface from lime plates and other deposits. Now it is not much difficulty, the range of relevant funds is just huge. After that, we completely remove old interlocking seams using a thin and pointed item (better if it is wooden, it will avoid accidental damage to the tile) and drag them again.

If the tile lost the last gloss ...

In general, the ceramic tile is pretty easily restores its original view with the help of special impregnations, detergents and other drugs, but if I really want to change, and the new stacking is not yet included in your plans, you can try to change the surface design.

One of the ways is the color of the tile. Of course, at first it needs to be thoroughly clean and polished with sandpaper. After that, they degrease the plot of a tiled coating, designed to the drawing, and remove the remaining flare with the help of acetone. If the drawing is simple, for example, geometric ornaments, then its boundaries can be designated using fine tape or tape. If you wish something unusual, you will have to face with the preparation of stencils. The surface left below the surface should be primed, and it can be embarrassed to its color only after complete drying of the primer layer.

That's all, you can enjoy the new interior!

Paving tile

About this type of tiles need to say a few words separately. Yes, it requires the same types of repair, but there are several nuances in their technologies.

First, when replacing paving tile It is necessary to re-fall asleep the base of sand, carefully to take it and dissolve.
Secondly, if the dedication or deformation was caused wastewater, First, you should take care of the correct removal from the surface of the coating, and then start repairing the paving slabs.

And finally, a small video telling about some building secrets of styling tiles and stamps of seams:

Do not forget that even the most durable materials may fail as a result of non-accurate circulation. Pledge of durability of tiled coating - correct care and timely repair work.

Tile requires a careful relationship.

Repair of tile requires caution in preparatory and basic work.

Using this construction materialIt is necessary to exercise caution both in preparatory work and during the installation itself.
It often happens that after a certain period, part of the laid tiles can fall off, and the other is a bit crap. With this picture there were many owners of apartments. There are several main reasons that could lead to such consequences. Most of them are associated with the mistakes of the wizard made by them during the installation of tiles on the wall:

the preparation of the walls was carried out incorrectly, with serious violations;

violation of installation technology, which could entail the appearance of cracks, chips;

glue was prepared incorrectly;

the destruction of the adhesive basis due to poor quality processing of the seams.

You can avoid future repair of ceramics in the event that the rules of laying and operation will be fully followed, it is also important to care.
Modern types of tile repair do it yourself

Scheme laying tiles in the corner using PVC profiles.

With a modern tile, many metamorphosis may occur, due to which the appearance of the ceramic tile flies: fat and dirty stains appear on the tile, a small mesh of cracks appear, often the tiles are numbered in the corners or can fall off the walls at all. With the help of conventional tools, you can conduct cosmetic repair of tile without attracting professional masters.

A large scratch is strongly distinguished on the matte surface and spoils the entire type of compositions. The perfect option is a complete tile replacement, but if there is no such possibility, you can perform the following simple actions that will help disguise this small defect:
Initially, it is necessary to prepare the material that consists of cement and water. From these two components, it is necessary to make a solution that should not be dense, but rather liquid. No other components need to use.

If the scratch is not deep enough, then it must be coated with the resulting solution. It is desirable to grasp the crack solution. For this operation, it is convenient to use a small piece of fabric. Now the solution must completely dry, then the operation is repeated again until the crack stops being noticeable.

It happens that the processed area may differ in color from all others. In this case, the necessary paint is selected, it is very neatly applied to the crack, the main thing is not to fall on the whole tile. There should be no problems with the selection of paint, as modern construction stores provide a selection and paint service for individual orders.

If one element of the tile design disappeared, then it may be incurred by a drop in other ceramic tiles. If the tightness was not broken, then it is possible to return the left-handed piece to its usual place. Before working on the laying, you need to carefully make dismantling of all unstable elements of the tile, that is, to highlight the entire tile, which when you click swinging or already departs from the wall. An important stage of work is the preparation of walls. Old frozen adhesive composition should be completely removed, otherwise the repair will not work. After removing the adhesive, it is necessary to clean the surface, remove all the remnants of dirt and dust. All foreign elements may interfere with the adhesion of ceramic tiles with a wall. After carefully spent cleaning, the wall should be abundantly moistened with water. Different components can be used as a solution or glue:

dry tile glue;

cement solution;

sealant created on silicone basis;

liquid nails or liquid glass;

zinc bleel, which are applied to the base, previously processed by the oil.

The thick layer of applied glue can lead to the fact that the tile can perform above the main layer. In order to prevent this, the place of applying glue needs to be deepen just a couple of millimeters.

The tile laid on the floor flies and breaks most often. During operation, it is recommended to avoid situations when a heavy metal object may fall on the coating. If damage still happened, it is required to carry out urgent repair so that the defect does not apply further.

The tool selection depends on the type of repair work to be implemented. If from laying outdoor coating The tile stock remains, it is successfully used for restoration.

The better the seams are worked out, adjacent to the damaged element, the easier it is to remove it without damaging the adjacent tile. Some cloud compounds are recommended to twist for better removal

Tiler may need as follows:

chisel;
screwdriver;
steel hammer 80 g - tool convenient to cut out floor tiles;
chisel;
tile glue;
cement mortar;
tile nippers;

Estimation of the degree of destruction

Before repairing the flooring is required to conduct an audit and evaluate the degree of destruction. If during the inspection, it was revealed that the damage was affected by more than 30% of the surface, justified overhaul Floor. Old flooring is dismantled, the new facing is laid out.

If the canvas is damaged partially, minor repairs are carried out. Well, if the owner will leave some tiles after the completion of the cladding- It is this material that is suitable for the implementation of such works. In the opposite case will have to look suitable for tone and size of ceramics in the store.

The main complexity of the restoration work is that it is difficult to remove the tile, do not bore the rest, integers.

Remove the damaged material when repairing tiles on the floor in several ways:

seams cut through a drill with a thin drill;
seams are powered by a grinder;
the tile is dismantled manually using a bit or perforator.

When the tile is removed, a sharp scraper is removed with a glue layer. If you are viewed damage to the screed, proceed to its recovery, for which you use cement-sandy solution. If the base is not damaged, only tiled glue uses.

Stages of work

Paid repair with their own hands is carried out in stages. The presented recommendations can be used as a guide to action when removing one destroyed element or small groups.

Removal of damaged tile

If the damaged tile is at the wall, the plinth is neatly removed for the tiled floor. After repair, they can be installed back. On the turnover of each plinth with a pencil put a mark. This will avoid confusion when re-installed.

Total sequence of actions:

diagonal damaged tiles produce holes with a step 2 cm. Work is comfortable drill or perforator;
with the help of chisel and the hammer is broken into small pieces;
deleting fragments should be directed from the center to the edges.

Cleaning

The resulting dust and garbage is removed by a vacuum cleaner. It should be understood that the careless cleaning of the surface will worsen adhesion and repairing floors in the house will be ineffective.

Preparation of the foundation

For sale poured self-leveling mixture, cement-sandy solution or tile glue. Screed must dry.

Laying

Using the toothed spatula, the tile glue is applied to the surface. The tile is placed on the solution controlling the horizontal. If necessary, the position of the tile is corrected by the Cyan.

Shutkish seams

When the adhesive mass is dried, proceed to the grip of the seams. The composition is applied with a rubber spatula. Surplus are removed by a moistened sponge.

Repair of shallow cracks

Working with a perforator, drill, tile cutting with injury. It is recommended to use personal protective equipment or apply for professional help.

Cement mortar can be used to eliminate the defect. They fill the crack and spend high-quality grout. Within 72 hours, the surface is regularly moistened, which is required for better grasp. The processing zone should be covered with a film.

If the glue composition is used, the sequence of actions is as follows:

with the help of a wet buckthorn, contaminants are removed;
tile glue with a pigment fraction corresponding to the surface shade;
the defect is neatly filled with the composition;
the plot is covered with wet sawdust and left for 24 hours.

Restoration of wipe plots

Refresh the coating will allow a special stencil. The pattern is applied to the tile in accordance with its own preferences. Before restoration, the floor washed with a weak solution detergent And bring to dry condition. When the drawing is on a tile, it is fixed using a varnish resistant to abrasion, observing paint drying time.

If the tile is a whole, but behind the floor

The module can be glued again. Previously expands and deepened a plot where the tile is located. It is enough to work out 10-12 mm. The remnants of glue, dust are removed using a vacuum cleaner. The surface is ground and filled with concrete solution.

The tile is covered on the back and immersed in the solution with the observance of the seams. Excess composition are removed with a wet rag. Within 7 days, the restored area is maintained in a wet state.

Shvi update

If a poor-quality grout was used during the main repair, during operation it collapses and clearances are formed on the tile coating. In the premises with an unstable level of humidity between the seams, a black mold appears. To eliminate the defect, you can remove local areas or completely remove the grout.

Full replacement is appropriate with a large area of \u200b\u200bdamage. The point repair of ceramic tiles will look outnetic and forms many zones, excellent in color.

Sequencing:

the old grout is removed by a sharp wooden subject;
the new layer is laid on its place with the help of a rubber spatula.

Return brilliance

So that the floor covering does not require repair, it should be ensured by its professional installation based on the operational features of the room

If the surface of the tile lost the shine, the color saturation, it can be updated using painting. The site is grained by sandpaper, degreases with acetone and is ground. The selected paint is applied using a roller.

Using cold welding for ceramics

Damaged fragments of floor tiles can be repaired using an adhesive composition, which is called cold welding. It is permissible to work with material and wet surfaces. The product is produced in the form of a plasticine rod and contains amine, epoxy resins, mineral fillers.

Repair of damage is carried out as follows:

before closeing the chip or other defect, the repair point is cleaned by contamination, istented by sandpaper, degreases with acetone;
the surface must dry;
the required part of the rod is cut off and kneaded with his fingers;
the composition is viable for 5-7 minutes. When heated, the time decreases, during cooling - increases;
the sophisticated composition is applied to the working surface and is fixed for 15 minutes;
after 1.5 hours, the surface is maintained and can be operated.

Than launder tiled floor after repair

Most pollution are removed special meansdesigned to care for ceramic products and a cafeter. It is recommended to immediately remove the building mixtures without waiting for their drying.

Types of pollution and cleaning techniques:

building dust - soap solution, water with lemon, means for washing glass, vinegar;
dried adhesive solution - acetone, solvents, blade, spatula, scraper;
primer - washbasket based on solvent, acetone;
grout - Clean water, epoxy solvent.

Application indoors

In order for the entire complex of work to restore flooring to be successful, it is necessary to take into account the specifics of the room. This will allow you to pick up correct materialcorresponding to the operating conditions.

Kitchen

If the purchase of tiles is required, the maximum suitable design is chosen, the third class of wear resistance, water resistance is at least 3%, the friction coefficient is not more than 0.75. For technical indicators, the tile must match the average parameters. Repair of the floor in the kitchen is carried out in a standard way.
