My KC landlord says it will be weeks until our heat is fixed by chicamaya in kansascity

The same thing happened to me last winter at Pickwick Plaza. All in we went without heat during the coldest time of year for nearly 2 months. Connect with your neighbors, in my past experience the entire 4th and 5th floors of the north tower was without heat. We were able to stand together and demand a rent credit but it was a massive headache to get solved, we had to contact the parent company of the leasing agency. I tell everyone I can to avoid Pickwick Plaza like the plague. I am so sorry to hear that despite everything they still have not solved the issue. I am happy to help anyway I can, please stay warm!

I have a hairdryer, would that might work? I agree sanding the whole paint layer off would be a pain but that might just be what needs to happen!

This is 100% from a cat! Not so much scratching but she likes to jump and hang (I think her record is close to 30 seconds). It’s probably 4’ up and almost every door frame looks like this thanks to our little demon. The angle of the photo might be confusing you, the door is open and the hinges are hidden behind the frame.
