WHAT'S ORDINARY WEAR AND TEAR?
Typical definition of ordinary wear and tear is "That deterioration which occurs based upon the use of which the rental unit is intended and without negligence, carelessness, accident, or misuse, or abuse of the premises or contents by the tenant or members of his household, or their invitees or guests."
In other words, ordinary wear and tear is the natural and gradual deterioration of the apartment over time, which results from a tenant's normal use of the apartment. For example, the carpeting in an apartment, or even the paint on the walls, wears out in the normal course of living.
WHAT'S NOT ORDINARY WEAR AND TEAR?
A landlord can make a tenant pay for damages if the tenant helped the aging process along or didn't use the apartment in a normal way. A carpet worn from people walking on it is something you have to expect. But a tenant who cuts a hole in the carpet or spills paint on it may be held responsible for the damage. A dirty carpet is not considered normal wear and tear.
