It is tough when we only get one side of the story. $4 is not a big deal, when you think that in 6 months time you may be moving if you don’t Cave in to their demands. I assume there is something in the lease that covers this, or that they are charging for the 3rd cabinet. I doubt that he got fined by the city if he corrected what was asked. Landlords are allowed a grace period for repairs. I am a landlord and the city will always find something petty to write up if they show up on a tenant’s request. I’ve had them cite me for no screens on a couple windows, when they were laying on the ground right in front of the unit., And once was written up for a faulty “Fridge” when the electric was not even turned on. Needless to say the inspectors in both cases were very embarrassed when I took photos and shut off statement from utility company to their boss. Sounds like something is not being told here.

He can’t do that. He can raise your rent when your lease is up if he experienced extra costs. Are you on a monthly lease. If you are, you are vulnerable. If not, refuse to pay it.
