After Hours Plumber Because Of Wet Wipes
I own a fourplex, and I live in one of the two bottom units, have a tenant in the other. I get a text while I’m gone saying that her toilet and bathtub are backing up. I call a plumber to come snake my drain after hours and it’s $600. A lot of wet wipes, and everything else, come out of all the drains during the process. My tenant tells me she’s been flushing wet wipes down the toilet.
Can I charge her for this when I have two other tenants? How should I go about this? Just suck it up and pay?
