Re: Clogged drain pipe - Landlord Forum thread 247884

Re: Clogged drain pipe by Susan on February 11, 2012 @10:42

                              
I really wonder how a plumber can say with certainty who caused a clog. Years ago, my drain got clogged and a plumber was called. He finally pulled out of the drain an old pink hair curler. He gave me a dirty look, but I have never in my life used hair curlers and had not had any guests in the apt. at that point. That thing must have been 20 years old and finally just caused a real problem.

Well he can say what caused the clog. If he pulls out something like a hair curler then it's obviously not of defect with the pipes themselves and is user caused, which one is up for debate. At that point, some kind of agreement should be discussed on how and if to split the cost which the OP wrote is what the LL wanted to do in the first place and which she feels she shouldn't be held responsible for anything at all regardless if she caused it.

    If she didn't want to be held responsible she shouldn't have signed the lease.
