Patterned cement tiles are a favorite in old mansions, historic houses, and boutique venues that have come back into fashion in recent years. Over time these tiles wear down, their patterns fade, and their surfaces collect stains and dirt. Tile grinding is a delicate job: the dirty, worn layer on the surface is carefully removed while the pattern layer is preserved, and the tile is then protected. We work on old and new patterned tile floors across Antalya, Mersin, Adana, and Muğla.
What do we do in tile grinding?
- Deep cleaning: Dirt and old polish residues that have penetrated the pores of the tile are dissolved and removed.
- Controlled grinding: Only the worn surface is removed with fine diamonds, according to the thickness of the pattern layer.
- Broken tile repair: Cracked and broken tiles are repaired or, if necessary, replaced with tiles of a similar pattern.
- Grout renewal: Darkened and loose grout lines are cleaned and refilled.
- Color revival and protection: An impregnating sealer that deepens the colors and a silky protective finish are applied.
Where we do tile grinding
- Historic houses and mansions: Renewing original patterned floors while preserving them.
- Boutique hotels and cafés: Entrances and lounges laid with patterned tiles.
- Old apartment building entrances: Entrance halls with tile mosaic flooring.
- New homes: Patterned tile applications in kitchens, bathrooms, and balconies.
How do we work?
- Inspection and test: We carry out a test on a small area to see the thickness of the pattern layer.
- Cleaning: We remove dirt and old polish with solvents.
- Honing: We work the surface in fine stages, removing only as much as necessary.
- Repair: We replace broken tiles and joints and level them with the surface.
- Protection: We apply a color-enhancing impregnating sealer and hand over the finished work clean.
Why does the pattern matter?
The pattern of a cement tile lies in a colored layer just a few millimeters thick on the surface. Someone who is used to floor grinding but doesn't know cement tiles can destroy this layer within a few minutes.
- Fine tooling: Coarse diamonds are not used for grinding tiles.
- Continuous checking: The pattern thickness is checked after every grit stage.
- Chemical-based method: Where possible, dirt is removed by cleaning before grinding.
