In this situation (which happened several times, regardless of who signs
what document, etc. etc.) we would go remove our equipment and fix the
damage at our cost. It's not worth all the headaches and issues in the
future.

Hey all,
So I got an angry call from a owner of a townhouse who rents it out to
one of our new internet customers. We were never made aware the home
was a rental in any way. Our techs always ask permission on where to
mount the dish and bring in the wire and they were given approval to
mount the dish on the roof and drill a hole for the wire. If it was a
rental, we would have talked to the landlord.
The home owner now wants us to remove the dish, cable, and holes and
restore everything to original condition. He wants new siding, new
shingles, the whole works.
I don't exactly know how I should handle this situation. We won't be
pulling the mount off the roof because it is sealed if we leave it
there. We can't move the dish because the signal is only good there.
Do we have any sort of protection from OTARD or anything that allows
us to keep things in place since we were given permission from the tenant?
Ideas or ways to handle this smoothly? We are not going to pay for new
siding or roofing when we were given permission to install. If
anything, the tenant would be responsible since we did the work on
their behalf.
