We just moved into a house that we are renting for $900 a month. Over labor day weekend the main sewage pipe calapsed. Problem being my husband and I went downstairs to clean up the basement floor, and we and our son are now quite sick. Not only that, but this pipe has been broken for a week now. Our landlord is playing dumb with us, and seems like he is stalling to get it replaced.
We are upset that we are paying such a high amount, and nothing is getting fixed. Our whole front yard will be dug up from the house to the main road to replace the pipe. We can not flush any toilet paper, as it will clog the remaining opening in the pipe. Very quick showers, and can't use the dishwasher, and have to wash the dishes by hand, quickly so the pipe won't over flow.
We already placed the $900 for this month, but we don't feel we should have to pay that full amount for this coming month, as the ammentities we are paying for are being slashed.
Also we live in Michigan.
