It might state that it's the tenant is responsible, but in many case the State law says otherwise. If you claim the tenant doesn't care about taking care of property and is negligent(what ever that means), the case can be made about the landlord being non caring and negligent also. The landlord should take this opportunity to check out the drain problem and also inspect the property too! But the landlord has decided that's too much trouble and instead hides behind a lease clause that's maybe illegal.

Negligent as in careless. And it's not illegal for the LL to require a tenant fix or pay for something the tenant caused.
