Water Damage Tile Repair

Water damage tile repair that opens damaged areas, dries and replaces backing and framing, rebuilds waterproofing and sets matching tile.

Water that gets behind tile is a slow problem. It can soften backing, rot framing and grow mold long before it shows in the tile. Soft spots, stained grout, loose tiles and musty smells are signs. Homeowners in Nashville call us when a shower starts to feel spongy or a floor near a tub sounds hollow, and fast action limits the damage.

We inspect carefully, using moisture meters and, when needed, opening a small area to see what is behind the tile. If water has damaged backing or framing, we remove the affected material, allow the area to dry and repair or replace what is needed. Then we rebuild the waterproofing and set new tile. We also look for the source, such as a failed corner, a bad drain or a leaking valve, because repairs without a fix will fail again. Where mold is present, we explain options and recommend professionals when appropriate. Turn off the water if there is an active leak and call a plumber if needed. Photograph all visible damage and note any odors or discoloration. Share when the problem started and any repairs you know about, and we will plan an inspection that finds the real source.

How it works

Our process, start to finish.

  1. 01

    Call and describe the job

    You tell us the rooms, the tile you like and your timing, and we ask about the floors, walls and any water issues.

  2. 02

    Measure and plan

    We check flatness, moisture and layout from photos or a visit and talk through materials, pattern and trim.

  3. 03

    Review the estimate

    You get a plain written scope with prep, waterproofing, materials, schedule and cure times before anything is ordered.

  4. 04

    We prepare the surfaces

    Old tile comes out, floors are repaired and leveled, backer board and membranes go in and showers are waterproofed and tested.

  5. 05

    We set the tile

    Tile is set with the right mortar, checked for flatness and alignment and cut carefully at the edges.

  6. 06

    Grout, seal and walk through

    We grout, seal and caulk, clean up and walk the finished job with you, leaving written care tips and extra tile.
