Landlord Needn't Wax Floors
LVT Number: 18529
Tenant complained of a reduction in services based on inadequate janitorial service. The DRA ruled for tenant. Landlord later applied for rent restoration based on restoration of services. The DRA ruled for landlord, and tenant appealed. Although he admitted that landlord was mopping the common area floors, tenant claimed that landlord wasn't waxing the floors. The DHCR ruled against tenant. Tenant didn't complain about floor waxing in his complaint. And lack of floor waxing is a minor condition that didn't warrant a rent reduction.
