if your renting isn't it the landlords duty to have it fixed?
That would be correct depending on your terms of renting.
Usually minor things (if you know how) is somewhat ok to many of people since it isn't really worth the 'hassle' of calling a landlord.
If you are dealing with a small home and you inform them, the renter and landlord could simply communicate that a part is changed and compensate them from the rent.
Although many people prefer not to do this since it would complicate things and some landlords abuse good nature or "forget".
