Need Recommendation on Slippery Front Porch Tile on Rental
Hi BP,
This is my first post on here, I've definitely gathered a great amount of useful tips from you all so thank you!
I'm underway with a rental rehab we just acquired, the porch has tile. Our concern is when wet how slipperly it could be or how slippery a litigiously inclined tenant would suggest the tile is. I was at the property after some wet weather and it was a little slick.
This area rents between $750 and $850, we're on the higher end as the kitchen and bath were renovated prior to acquiring.
Would love some recommendations on a cost effective solution. Attached are pictures of the screened porch, without a door. Below are the ideas we've been considering would welcome any you have.
- Do we put down exterior carpet?
- Spray an anti-slip agent? Concern of how frequently we'll have to reapply
- Remove tile? (Not so cost effective)
Thanks in advance!
Cheryl
