What happened

The Landlord applied for an order requiring the Tenants to pay for damages to the rental unit, specifically concerning drywall repairs and carpet replacement. The Landlord amended the claim to a lower amount during the hearing to reflect actual carpet replacement costs rather than upgrades. The Tenants contested the liability, arguing they were not given the opportunity to perform the repairs themselves and that they had cleaned the carpets prior to moving out.

The ruling

The Tenants are ordered to pay the Landlord $4,424.21 for reasonable repair costs and $186.00 for the application filing fee, for a total of $4,610.21. Payment must be made by December 15, 2025, after which interest will accrue.
