Sehome sits near Western Washington University, a mix of owner-occupied homes and rentals. The tile work here splits two ways: durable, low-maintenance porcelain floor and shower tile for rental turnovers, and regrout and repair on the aging bathrooms in student housing that have seen a lot of use.
For rentals, the right answer is usually porcelain that takes abuse and cleans up easily, set over the right membrane so it lasts between tenants. For repairs, we give an honest call: sometimes a regrout and a few replaced tiles is the smart spend, and sometimes the shower has a waterproofing problem worth fixing once. We quote it either way in writing.
Tile work in Sehome follows our Bellingham pricing: shower and tub surrounds run $2,800 to $9,500, bathroom floors $1,400 to $4,500, backsplashes $900 to $3,200, and floor tile $9 to $22 per square foot installed. Every shower includes waterproofing and every floor an uncoupling membrane, which is what makes tile last in our wet climate. We quote your job line by line.
Do you do durable tile and regrouting for Sehome rentals near WWU?
Yes. Near WWU we do a lot of rental-turnover tile and repair. For turnovers we set durable, low-maintenance porcelain that holds up between tenants. For older bathrooms we will tell you honestly whether a regrout and a few replaced tiles will hold or whether the shower needs more. Either way you get a written quote first.
