What does repair clause specifically constitute?
The clause states:
To be responsible for all repairs and replacement of parts and other expendable items at its own expense up to $150.00) per item per repair. ln the event such expenditure exceeds 5$150.00, the Tenant shall bear the first $200.00 and any excess thereof shall be borne by the Landlord.
When an appliance has an issue it needs to be checked by technician first to identify the cost of the repair - labor/parts. When the technician checks they will already charge a fee - diagnostic/checking fee e.g. $20 - $60 depending on the appliance. Is checking fee also be part of the repair cost covered in the first $200 borne by tenant?
From my understanding its part of the repair cost as the landlord has the final say whether to have it repaired or a replacement should be purchased.
May I know what is the correct practice on this?
