Reimbursing tenant for unusable bathroom?

Kristen P.
Posted

Hi all ,

Our downstairs tenant reached out because their bathroom ceiling had water damage and was leaking, come to find out the upstairs toilet has been loose and leaking which we were not aware of unfortunately.

My husband plans to resolve the issue this weekend but we will need to take up old flooring and put down new flooring. He plans to get it done over the weekend but the bathroom will not be usable and it’s a 1 bath unit.

Should we reimburse the tenant at all for not being able to stay there ? I figured 100$ is fair which is the daily cost of rent for 3 days. We have never encountered an issue like this before so not sure what the norm is ?
