Immediate bathroom repairs

Ben Dubinski

So today we learned we have a tile/ water problem in the bathroom of our rental. Floor tiles are loose, water has crept in over time and it seems this bathroom is in need of repair. Problem is, it's a one bathroom place. How would you handle displacing your tenant for several days to get this work done? I would possibly take this opportunity to replace the toilet and vanity as well while the floor is getting ripped out, I figure 3-4 days total with demo, laying tile and grouting before re-installing new toilet and vanity.

These have been great tenants so I don't want to put them out too much, but it needs to get fixed. Any ideas?

@Ben Dubinski Like most others have mentioned, I suggest either giving them a credit on their rent or putting them up in a hotel/Airbnb for the days that their bathroom is inaccessible.
