Painting bathroom tile vs. replacing.....
When renovating house our budget has run thin. We decided to paint the outdated tile vs. ripping out the walls and starting over. Very curious to get honest opinions. Thanks!

John Whipple - By Any Design ltd. Looks good from that angle. But lets see the close up pictures for a proper appraisal of your work!

Karen Tiede Art Rugs I'm all for the $25 solution until the money comes back. Painted my white vinyl kitchen floor for $40 eight years ago and it's still good enough. New vinyl would have been $300 not counting labor. So yes, that bathroom looks good enough, and perhaps by the time you have the money to redo it, your taste will have changed anyway.

Steve Miller Here is a better closeup - actually came out very nice - The key was using "Sherwin Williams Adhesion Primer "

Brittany Jackson It looks great! Thanks for the tip on the primer, I've been planning on doing the same thing to my tub surround and now you've inspired me to give it a go this weekend.

On the Spot Furniture Revival llc Looks great! I did my bath 3 years ago and it's held up well. Be sure not to use abrasive cleaners and to keep soap scum down, use bath gels rather than bar soap.

feeny Wow, I was kind of amused by the green and white checkerboard and might have tried to keep it and do something playful with the bathroom, but I think your inexpensive transformation is much prettier!

Stoneshop Your bathroom looks much cleaner and crisper. It looks like you actually replaced the tiles! I love your paint selection for above the tile as well. It looks good!
