I assume you have no response to the shorted rent check, so the landlord accepted this?

Anyway, you are talking 2 months. Keep calling plumbers to make sure your doodoo gets into the Pacific Ocean and deduct from you rent check as appropriate. Leave the place clean and functional, make sure you get your deposit check back.

It's an inconvenience for sure, but the best case scenario is N days of rent refunded for non-functional plumbing. Is that worth getting into a snit with your landlord?
