      Movers moving a tenant out from a top floor unit have dragged things down the carpeted stairwell (common property) and ripped small holes in the carpet on the edge of some of the steps.  The holes weren’t there this morning.

      The tenant has paid the movers, and they’ve gone.

      What to do about this?  I’ve already taken photos of the holes.  Does the tenant have any responsibility?  Should I phone/write to the movers and hope they own up like the company IN THIS POST did?  What if they just deny it was them?

      We have the standard by-law saying the OC must be notified before anything is moved through common property, so an OC rep can be present.  It was ignored, as it is 100% of the time.  Who has time to stand around a stairwell watching movers for hours, anyway??

      Cheers & thanks
