They installed bidets without my permission and created plumbing issues so I had to pay for a plumber to come out several times, I've had to replace a frontdoor knob and deadbolt last month even after we rekeyed the home prior to them moving in, the garbage disposal blades were jammed so had to call a handyman, repaired a broken window which my property manager claims was broken prior to them moving in even though the repair was made 3 months after they moved in.
