    If the carpet was provided by the LL and was included on the inventory then its the LL responsibility (assuming wear and tear and tenant hasn't damaged it)

    It's the "LL Responsibility" to what exactly?

    The landlord is responsible for what they provide- a LL can't claim a tenant for damaging a carpet yet not be liable for that same carpet


    If a LL provides something they are responsible for maintaining these items - end of.
    If something is at the end of its life it should be replaced to a similar standard
    baldly going on...

    I notice you say "end of", and 99.99% that means you are correct by inserting those words.

    In this case though. You're incorrect.
