Leaks & Loose Tile, Diagnosed Free
Find the path first. Then fix exactly that.
Water on the ceiling below, grout that never dries, tiles that click underfoot, a musty smell that outlives every cleaner — Plainville shower floors fail in predictable ways, and each symptom points somewhere specific. Our free leak assessment maps it: moisture readings across the floor and walls, drain and weep-hole check, grout and caulk inspection, and a flood test when the evidence points at the pan. Then you get the floor-only fix scoped to the actual failure — not a 'gut everything' quote.
Plainville notes
One-bath homes mean the tub-shower takes daily punishment: stained surrounds, cracked soap-dish tiles, grout worn to sand at the tap end. Landlords on the two-family streets re-tile between tenants constantly. Plainville landlords are repeat customers: a fresh surround and sealed grout between tenants rents the unit faster than any other upgrade. Stains below or smells within — call 860.990.2332. The diagnosis is free, the fix ladder is honest, and small catches stay small.

Common questions
Failed joints or clogged weep holes: $200–$500 re-seal and re-joint. We prescribe it whenever evidence supports it — small catches are the whole point of free diagnosis.
Hollow over a sound dry pan can sometimes be injected or spot-repaired; hollow + wet means rebuild. The meter reading next to the hollow decides.
Gladly — when diagnosis points to supply or drain plumbing, we document findings for your plumber and step aside. Right trade, right bill.
