Renovation on rental with current tenants

Kellen Bailey
Posted

 Hello, this is my first rental property. I lived here previous to renting it out and didn’t come across any plumbing issues while living there. 

Now we have three tenants,  and we have had a few issues that we have been completely on top of and have fixed right away. Our newest issue is that our bathtub upstairs had a leak, entering the room below and exterior. 

The only way to fix was to basically do a bathroom renovation. Our tenants have complained every step of the way. We  are reducing this months rent, we are paying for a cleaners once the jobs done, we’ve outlined exactly how long this job is for. (Two weeks during business days and hours) And one other detail is the house has two bathrooms so only one is unable to be used currently. 

Is there anyway we could be brought to small claims or sued for this due to the   Necessary rehab? 

Thanks! 

Kellen
