Tile Floor help?
My husband and I bought a house where most of the rooms (kitchen, dining room, entertainment room, den, and laundry room) are all tiled with these Terra cotta like tiles. They are a southern type rusty red and stain easily. My husband loves the tiles and wants to keep them. He’s concented on changing the color if I want though, as long as I keep the origional tile. I’m trying to make the house look a bit more elegant/country (Blues, silvers, whites, golds, dark greens, etc. Elegant and formal but still bright and airy) While keeping the tile, is there any way to stain it another color and do some kind of glossy seal? What color might keep that feel? What kind of products work best?
Yes, you can paint your tile. Basically, you’ll need to get the tile very clean, paint in several coats and then seal it with a good urethane. Based on the rooms you mentioned you shouldn’t have a problem with the floor getting too wet which would cause you problems with the paint and urethane. Also, if you paint and seal your floor I would treat it more like a wood floor as far as cleaning is concerned since you’re now just going to be cleaning a urethane surface. Here’s a link to a DIY description:

Can I offer some free advice? Once you start painting that floor there is no turning back. It would be almost impossible to remove the paint if you don’t like the way it looks and you would probably just have to rip the flooor out or put another flooring over the top of it. If I was thinking about doing this, I would get some similar tiles and just lay them on a piece of plywood in the garage and do a quick grout job. It doesn’t have to be perfect. I would do some testing with paint and urethane to see how it looks and how well it will hold up to wear.
Lastly, if you decide this just isn’t worth it the obvious and simple thing to do is use area rugs to bring in the colors you want.
