She is responsible for repairs unless you were negligent.
If she is only looking for the cost of chemicals though I would pay for it just to keep things civil. |

It depends on why it was clogged...Did you shove a bunch of stuff in the garbage disposal and then it clogged, or did it just clog? If you did it, then yes, you have to pay. |

Basic maintenance is the landlord's responsibility (refusing to fix a maintenance issue is a violation of the housing code and you can withhold rent until it is fixed) . If you did something abnormal to cause the problem, then it's your responsibility. |

Landlords are supposed to maintain the unit. Plumbing is supposed to work. Maintaining the plumbing is necessary for sanitation.
Don't let the manager stick you for what is a basic maintannce task. |

You don't have to pay for it.It's a Building Manager's duty to fixed it.Let water flows around the apartment and get leakages to down stairs.And down stairs tenant let complaint to the Manager.There they have to make more expenses than the Unclogging liquid. |

Check the agreement you signed when you moved into the apartment. It should say who is responsible for repairs. Usually that's the landlord. If that's the case, then she should absorb the cost of the work - including the liquid plumber - as an operating expense. |

It matters what your lease says.Usually the landlord pays for repairs but there are some crocked landlords out there. When renting a property be sure to read the lease carefully to be sure they are going to take care of repairs. |

It depends on your contract you signed when moving into the apartment. I would go back and read it for details on whether or not tenants are responsible for repairs. |

Most likely the landlord has to pay, but it really matter the state you live in and the contract.
Although, you can fight it in the court. Is it worth it? If you paid for it, then make sure you take the remaining bottle from him/her. |

All cost of living are yours to pay. Sounds shitty that you're getting charged though. |
