Re: landlord charging for fixing plumbing
If there's hair in the tub, then it's hair from your family. Hardware stores sell screens you can place in the drain to trap the hair, and it should be cleaned periodically.
It seems to me that the landlord would be correct to charge you for the plumber's visit in that case. Biodegradable drain cleaner might do the trick. Check the Web for nontoxic ways to do so. Good luck.
