My turn for plumbing woes!!!

[Mandy]

Ohhhh goodness Angie that sux! Hope plumbing issues are not contagous on this forum LOL...
Hope it gets sorted out and fixed soon for you, now what a nerve the landlord has to tell you they may fix it

[DianaB]

So your landlord isn't going to do anything? That doesn't seem right. What does he expect you to do?

I would go ahead and have it fixed and have them send the bill to your landlord. That is crap! We have a rental house and we make sure everything is running top notch! We have really good tennants and they always say they'll pay for it. If it was because of something they did, then yes, it's their responsiblity, but if it's something else...then it is ours.

Oh we've had problems with these landlords the whole time we've lived here. There is a leak in our bathroom ceiling from the neighbor's bathroom upstairs, it's been like that for two years. We tell them about it and it'll take them MONTHS to "fix" it and then a few days later it'll be leaking again. They don't fix it, they just tear the ceiling down and put up a new piece...rather than fixing the leak!

We didn't do anything to cause the plumbing issue so it was definitely there responsibility. I'm glad that as a landlord you feel that it's crap, too. That makes me feel better. lol

Oh yeah I almost forgot! They sent a plumber finally, after several phone calls telling them that it really needed to be fixed. So it's better now. YAY!

I can't wait to be in our own home... *sigh*

Glad they sent someone out to fix the problem.
Hang in there Angie, you can start "countdown" soon you will be in your new home!

I can't believe your landlords are such jerks. I would never let my tenants go one day with plumbing problems. Ours had a leak under the kitchen sink, they called and we were there within the hour. No one should have to put up with that. Next time just call the landlord, tell them the problem and tell them if they can't fix it that day, you will call whoever to fix it and have the bill sent to them. What a shame some landlords can't take better care of their tenants and the building they rent out.

Can you tell I feel very strongly about this subject???
