Always call the landlord, it’s his property.

As a landlord I appreciate a person taking care of odd little things if they can. I have developed this kind of relationship with my renters and in exchange we sharply discount rent and allow any items needed to be reduced from rent. I reduce rent by a lot. If they mess up a door I’m ok. I can replace entire door and frame for $150 if needed. I’m more than willing to drop rent to have peace.

Maybe there are other problems with this to consider, like rotted trimmers. My tenants pay rent I provide good housing. I want stuff like this fixed by my guys, that way I know it’s fixed properly.

I think it’s because my tenants have been my tenants for years and I’ve developed the trust of their help and that they won’t do anything they can’t do.
