Oak Park businesses restoring tile may qualify for the Village’s Interior Facade grant, which reimburses up to 50% of eligible interior work, to $5,000, with each application approved by the Village (businessgrants@oak-park.us).
Tile floors, restrooms and entryways take heavy daily wear in a business. Stained grout, cracked joints and dull stone can undercut an otherwise well-kept space, and many of Oak Park’s older commercial buildings still have original tile worth preserving.
Business owners planning interior improvements may want to look into the Village of Oak Park’s Interior Facade grant. Grout and tile restoration is among the types of interior work the program can cover. The grant reimburses up to 50% of eligible project costs, to a maximum of $5,000. It is open to Oak Park businesses and commercial property owners, and applicants must generate sales tax and hold an active business license in good standing. Whether a specific project qualifies, and whether a grant is awarded, is determined by the Village when it reviews each application. For details, contact the Village at businessgrants@oak-park.us or (708) 358-5425.
If you decide to apply, we’re happy to provide a detailed written quote describing the scope of work.

Restoring existing tile is typically faster and far less disruptive than replacing it.
