Repair Process and Timeline
The repair process begins with a detailed assessment to identify all damaged areas. Surface preparation includes cleaning and leveling the substrate. Damaged tiles are carefully removed, and new tiles are cut to fit precisely. Adhesives and grouts are matched to the existing materials to ensure a uniform appearance. The entire process may take several hours to complete, with some projects requiring additional curing time for adhesives and grouts.
