Re: Cleaning appartment when moving

listen to this one

the last place I moved out of in Basel..I had professionally cleaned before I left

I meet the hausart the enxt day to hand it over

after inspecting the flat he brought me into the bathroom and made me pay for a new shower valve and handle as he said I had pulled on it too hard... "he needed to replace it for the new tennants next week" were the words he used

it was already broken before i move in but I did not list it when I signed the contract

anyway I paid him the the 80 francs after a long and heated discussion

a week later I'm cycling to work past my my old flat and there is my entire bathroom(shower included) on the side of the street in a tip

the wee (------) took the money off me knowing full well that he was about to gut the whole bathroom

and that was with an agency

needless to say I marched up the stairs and demanded my money back

the whole system is so ed up its beyond a joke

I'm with an agency. I'm sure they will be better than the last owner - they cant be any worse.

The last bill was for a standard appt - 3.5 or 4.5 rooms (can't quite remember), about 90sq metres. The cleaning bill was effectively one month's rent.

Anyway, I am ready for the next bill - my expectations have been managed...
