Who is liable for a broken window in a rental property?
December 12009
Ok, so I know I am…I’m the one who broke it. The thing is, it is a flowery pattern glass. I broke the small window pane, at the bottom. There is a larger one above it, still perfectly fine. By law I have to fit safety glass in, and it doesn’t come in the old original pattern. The realestate said I’d have to pay to fit new glass for the unbroken top piece as well, so they both match.
Does that seem right?
Yes, you want the door to look decent.
You may be able to have a piece crafted, do not assume you need tempered glass, you usually do not on a framed door. If you are within 5 feet of stairs, yes, but otherwise check.
