During a recent inspection, as usual, I nudged the toilet bowl to be sure it was snug. It wasn't and I reported this as a defect. All other toilet functions were OK (flush, no leaks). When I got down stairs to the kitchen water was dripping through a recessed light fixture. I returned to the bathroom and saw water streaming out of the supply connection at the ballcock connection. I shut off the supply and cleaned up the excess water. When I relayed this to the owner who came home shortly thereafter she was very upset and claimed I broke the toilet because this never happened before. Furthermore, she wants to hire a painter to repaint the ceiling and send me the bill. My claim is that the defective toilet which should not have moved, did, causing the water stain around the light fixture. I want to take the right and ethical action.....comments please!
