When I replaced the shower in one of my rentals I even tiled the ceiling above the shower and ran the tile on the walls all the way up to the ceiling just so water and moisture would never be a problem.

Now, I'm talking about things like a rose garden, or maybe even up to a ceiling fan.

It appears a pipe on the ceiling for the heating system has frozen and broken.  

Since I have a wide margin, I was planning to take out all plaster walls and ceilings, as well as rip our floors all the way through the subfloors.

I provided her with one extension which was for the month of May but than miraculously on May 31st, she advised me that the roof was leaking and the ceiling in the kitchen came down crashing with water on the kitchen floor which resulted in a slip and fall on her behalf.

Once the cabinet bottom falls out or water starts dripping from the ceiling on them while they sit on the couch, then its a emergency.

Basement was gutted and drywall and ceiling tiles were added and painted.The garage had a strange odor and the floor was sticky from old carpet so the floors were epoxy painted.

Paint, ceiling fan, etc.

Any expiereced handy men or women who would like to give me a class on replacing ceiling fans and light fixtures?

I'm not sure exactly what makes the apartment illegal, it has a legal exit (and is small enough that I think it only needs one), the windows might be too small and the ceiling might be too low.
