Hi all,
So 3 times over the past 6 months I've had a leaking shower tap in one of my rentals.
I had the same company out all three times to fix the problem. The second time they didn't charge me as I said it's covered by warranty. The problem is the third time they went out they told me the shower breech needs replacing as the tap seat can not be resurfaced as it is to thin.
This means ripping off the tiles, drilling into the concrete and replacing the breech piping.
The annoying thing which I'll be complaining to them about is they knew the second time it is only a temporary fix but didn't tell me until yesterday when I had to get them out to temporary fix the problem again, which they charged me.
Has anyone had to do this while tenants are in the property and do you know a rough cost and time frame?
I'm going to get another plumber out to confirm this is the problem.
