We Own a busy deli in the city , a month ago there was a rain storm and the roof of our building is damaged This caused a lot of water damage from our ceiling . 2 of our menu tvs went out and we were closed for half the day . We thought it was a one time thing and he reimbursed us for the TVs .
Recently it rained hard again , this time we were forced to close for a full day and our ceiling was damaged .
I told him he should reimburse us for the revenue for that day . Given the fact that he should’ve gotten the memo the first time and fixed his roof the right way instead of patching it up.
Our rent is about 8k a month , we average about 6k a day in revenue I told him we can call it 5k because it was a rainy day .
He threatened to sue and shut us down and offered to deduct one days rent for the day we were closed
Should we just pay the rent and move on but I don’t see how that’s fair
