We recently completed a kitchen splashback broken tiles repair for a rental property in Elwood. The existing tiles around the sink, window and tiled window ledge had become heavily worn with age. Several sections were cracked, loose and uneven, leaving the area looking tired and difficult to maintain.
Budget Property Maintenance in Elwood
As the home was being prepared for tenants, the owner required a practical property maintenance within a small budget. A complete kitchen renovation was unnecessary, so our team focused on repairing the area while keeping the surrounding tiles untouched. This approach reduced material and labour costs.
We protected the stainless steel sink, tapware, benchtop and nearby surfaces before carefully removing the damaged tiles. Loose adhesive and unstable material were cleared from the wall to create a sound base for the replacement work. Particular care was taken around the plumbing connections and window frame, where accurate preparation was essential.
Professional Tiling Services
New white tiles were installed across the repaired splashback section and aligned with the existing tiled surfaces. Our professional tiling team measured each position carefully to maintain straight grout lines and an even finish. The window ledge tiles were also repaired, providing a neat transition between the splashback and window.
Once the tiles were secured, the joints and edges were finished to improve appearance and help protect the area from everyday moisture around the sink. The completed repair now looks level, bright and suitable for regular tenant use.
