Landlord left my garden a mess after construction
(Quebec, Canada)
My landlord recently redid the front balcony because the wood was rotting and broke many plants during the process. I tried to tell him to advise the workers to please be careful but now it’s a mess. I went out this morning to find garbage, bits of glass, a razor blade and the big bushes broken in many points.
He also told me that he would be redoing the railing “to code” and replaced the metal with a flimsy easily bendable railing. I tried to put my weight on it and the whole thing shook. I also had a chair out there (my bad - I should have brought it in earlier) which is nowhere to be seen. I’m sure the construction guys threw it out.
What can I do here? He didn’t respond to my last questions about the specifics of the construction. Frankly I’m furious because this is not the first time they’ve disrespected the garden. Last year they removed the 6 foot tall bushes out back without notice, which is when I learned they had total rights to do so. Now I’m left wanting them to clean up their mess but not wanting to sound as mad as I am. How should I move forward?
