We call this one, “The Landlord Supremo”

Landlord “fixed” the toilet.
Its become a trend for him to use cheaper materials and tools to save a buck.

Geek Squad mounted my TV to the sewage pipe

I’m no electrician, but I think I’ve solved the mystery of why changing the lightbulbs didn’t work.

I was stunned at the gorgeous details hiding under all that paint (I counted at least 5 layers!) Debating whether to commit myself to stripping the rest of the original door plates from our 1920s rental once the weather perks up – my house still smells like citristrip.

Previous owners painted around their furniture instead of moving it

Most dangerous landlord special I’ve ever seen.
Bathroom fans are known for being a fire hazard, especially of they’re left on for extended periods of time. But painting over excessive dust is the most insanely dangerous thing I’ve ever seen involving a bathroom fan vent.

My dad painted the light yellow
Looks like the paint moulded?!

Landlord hired a guy to power wash the stairs

A Redditor asks landlord to fix a hole in the screen.

When the property management company says the place has been professionally cleaned.

Oh no, those aren’t tiles. My dodgy landlord replaced our ceiling with styrofoam

My apartment management tried to access my place without proper notice. I always chain my door.

1100 dollars to replace a door that wouldn’t close all the way… for a nice door that doesn’t close all the way.

My landlord installed insanely bright parking lot lights that shines directly into my entire apartment
Took these at MIDNIGHT. Thought they were on a day/night cycle, but they’re still going now (well into the morning). Couldn’t even see the fireworks last night they were so bright.

the landlord special

They refinished the floors at work OVER one of my hairs
I didn’t realize until I tried to pick it up.

Free that spider

Landlord kicked in my door when I was out of town
Moved my stuff into my sublease and then had to go out of town and came back to find out that the landlord had kicked in my front door, not notified me about it and left it completely unlocked with all my stuff in the room. I’m at a loss.

Contractors painted around cabinets instead just moving them at the office…now we have this

Owner moved the outlet to a more convenient location.

My landlord installed a second doorknob. You can’t open the door without turning both of them.

Landlord locked the thermostat in the middle of winter to prevent’ the boiler losing pressure.. It still drops pressure leaving us with out heating or hot water every few days.

Landlord “repairs” microwave using my power bar
Cherry on top is that he unplugged all my s**t (yes the power bar was in use!). Had my Christmas tree and lamps plugged.

My friend was trapped in her apartment bcz of this
Her apartment complex gave no warning either. She missed her classes and couldn’t leave her house at all.

My apartment complex cancelled my work order for the stair well above my apartment.

Our landlord hired a plumber to fix our toilet. He said he’d put some sealant behind it to stop it from moving.

A Redditor’s landlord installed a “handrail”

Told my landlord I found cockroaches in my apartment and asked for pest control. He sent me a link to a tweet.
Meanwhile, my apartment has massive gaps between the floor and the wall and several holes to the outside.
