[quote=no_such_reality]Any one have a good tile guy? Our tenant moved out and it’s dropped something coming down the stairs and put a one inch by inch by 1/8th inch deep gouge chip out of the center of the 18 inch tiles
Since the tile was original builder upgrade prior owners didn’t leave any spares.
Unless a temecula area tile guy knows where to find a match I suspect we may rip out the very nice tile and put in engineered wood. I heard we can maybe patch it however the hole is right about where a woman’s heel will land coming of the stairs so I have very little stomach “good enough”
For the OP you may wish to figure out how a simple move out accident affects your $100/month[/quote]
So this is interesting. What do you plan on doing wrto the the tenant’s deposit? Are you going to bill them for the entire tile replacement? It seems like if you do, they will pushback and tell you just to replace 1 tile .. I’m just curious in this situation, would you end up eating most of the cost?
Tile suck for high traffic areas in a rental… It’s cheaper per sqft than say laminate or vinyl or wood these days (material wise), but I’d be worried of tenants dropping stupid stuff on it….But then again, I’m not someone that can afford to do high end rentals (yet)…
Can you take out that tile and maybe 5-6 tiles around it, to make it look like a pattern of some sort…
