Looking for a tile, but if not, a tiler. :) - Tile Advice

[SimonN]

Hi All,
I'm sure this is a duplicate post from many who sign up but, I'm faced with a cost I can't cover currently and I'm desperate for help.

I live in a Bovis home built circa 2002. Two showers have broken, I cannot get a replacement cartridge for them as Triton have discontinued support and Maintenance. I've looked under the baths and attic for any spares but nothing. If I can't find a replacement I'll need to re-tile the entire two bathrooms on top of the cost of replacing two showers as well. The upright bits of the shower that is mounted to the wall, that holds the shower head, dosn't appear to be standard and I'm 'told strongly' - that any exposed holes are not OK.
So I really need to find these tiles. Does anyone know of an online tool that could help? I literally have nothing other than those stuck to the wall, the name of the house builder and date and a photo.
In reality they don't look this dark - much more cream/pale.


Can anyone help please? You'd be saving me earache and a lot of money.
Cheers - Simon.

They seem to be 180 x 310 tile to tile. Sorry - I should've added that.

Can you post a picture of the shower and riser rail.

Thanks so much for the reply.

It’s a triton external mixer
(Images from both bathrooms one is literally dying and the other dead and in pieces.)



This is the shower riser

That's no problem at all to replace. It should be 150mm centres as standard. Riser rail is easy as well. Use the same top screw hole and if you get one a different length just use a mirror screw with a bit of silicone in the old hole.

I believe the riser that Triton supply is still the same as the one in the picture so would be a straight swap.

Thanks Gents. I’ll have a look another similarly shower. I didn’t choose the original gold colour and the extra they charge for the privilege is more than the additional cost of changing the associated taps and fittings to chrome. Could be onto a winner here.
