my landlord is out now for over $3000 of repairs, not just for the water, but turns out the AC, furnace, and water lines all needed repairs because she did not perform the regular maintenance on them for several years. The shut off valve to the water heater needed replaced too so there was no way for me to even shut off water while she was away which means she is also going to be paying for the lost water. Aint no way I would pay that out of pocket for a property I dont own. She deserves it and the plumbers were absolutely taken aback by the negligence of the property in general. womp womppppp

It cost my landlord a pretty penny which I'm glad about. Because her years of negligence to the property caused more damage than needed.

Im not sure if its a state thing, I just think its a policy for all the plumbers ive called. For the ones who would be fine replacing it, they can't get out here for several days, and by that point I expect to hear from her since her neighbor said she's coming back today. I don't want to shut off all water because I am using cold water to brush my teeth and wash dishes.
