I am a Nebraska resident, and I am just outraged at how my landlady is handling situations. Three days ago I called her about the bottom row of tiles in my bathtub. The tiles are protruding on the top portion of the row mentioned. Also, there is mold showing through the groute lines.
Landlady proceeded to ask me if I could spray some bleach on it. Ok, well I am a mother of two, and my house is ALWAYS clean. I clean my bathtub at least 3 times a week, and the mold is still visable (I explained all this to her). When the maintence man arrived he said he was here to fix the "mold issue," and all he did was put a line of caulk over the old lines to cover up the mold!!!
When I expressed my concerns to Landlady, she said she would send someone back out to fix the problem. Three days later, still mold around my babies! She also asked me about a burn spot on my back balcony porch, and for all I knew it had been like that when I moved in. Along with with ciggarette burns in my carpet, old ciggarettes in the window sills, no new paint, and a broken back door.
The straw that broke my back was when I came home from work today and MY BACK DOOR WAS BOARDED UP! No warning, no call, NOTHING! I don't see how it is legal for someone to board up one of my doors. Not only is it a fire hazard... a safety issue... overall, an invasion of a renter's rights! That back porch is in absolute HORRIBLE shape, but no one should have the right to do that without reasonable warning.
I found it funny that she could send someone out to nail down my door, but not to rid my bathtub of the mold. Any help on this?? I really feel like filing a civil lawsuit against her, and terminate my lease!
