We Don’t Always Bill the Tenants for Clogged Pipes
For the most part, clogged pipes are considered a rental tenant’s responsibility; but there are occasional exceptions. It’s important for a rental tenant to understand is that as property managers we want tenants to pay for items that are considered associated with a tenant’s activities and for property owners to pay for those items associated with the property itself.
Meaning: when we send a 3rd party repair person to execute a repair, if the result of the visit leads us to believe the repair was not the required due to the current tenant’s activities; then we would not charge the tenant.
If we felt the clog was because of an issue with the property itself or if we felt it was a result of a previous tenant, then we would likely not bill the current tenant.
A: Prevention is certainly what’s required in a rental just as it is in any home; but clogged drains can happen.
If you have a slow or clogged drain, you are required to let us know immediately. Very small, inexpensive problems can quickly become very big, very expensive problems. A slow drain, that goes unreported can clog, cause a flood, damage drywall, create mold, ect.
We will send our vendor to come fix the problem and bill you the cost.
Our vendors are chosen because we feel they are the best solution. They tend to work fast, work well and tend to be the least expensive solution. A clogged drain caught in time doesn’t necessarily mean a a large bill.
In the event an appointment is scheduled whereby the Landlord, a person acting on behalf of the Landlord, and/or a repairman is to meet You at the Premises or some other location and You fail to appear for the appointment within fifteen minutes of the scheduled time, then (and in addition to any other applicable fees) Tenant shall be charged a Missed Appointment Fee equal to $50.00 plus any amount charged by the repairman and/or the person acting on behalf of the Landlord, and is collectable as Rent.
