The landlord is doing work in the apartment (re-piping 274 units) and started on March 15 with drilling holes in the walls. They connected new pipes on March 19, working until 6:30 p.m. They say an inspection is needed, followed by drywall and painting. How long should this take and should the landlord/manager inform tenants about the progress? Tenants have had to remove items from closets and cabinets, and the apartment is a mess. Do tenants have any rights and should they be compensated (rent) for this interruption?
