Hi,
I hope I'm posting this in the right place. I recently phoned my landlord to come fix the pipe that my washer drains into(goes into the basement floor). It was draining too slow, causing water to overflow during the rinse cyle. They sent me a bill for $55. I live in Illinois and have lived in my apartment for 2 years. I consider this wear and tear. The invoice says the problem was caused by lint. It not like a drained something down there that didn't belong.
Am I responsible for this bill or is my landlord just trying to pull a fast one. Thanks in advance! If anyone could point me to a law or something I can print out to show them I will be so thankful!
