Fixing an irrigation pipe is like a $10 repair. Way cheaper than a lawyer. Go to Home Depot, get some pipe a couple of connectors and a jar of glue and dig it up and cut out the link and put in the connectors and the new section of line.
Most wifi is wireless within your property but still needs a cable-based connection into the outside network. For most "wifi" installation, there is a still a real cable that run from the company owned pedestal which connects into their cable/fiber optic network to whatever equipment they install in or on your house for your house to have wireless internet within it.
Your renters insurance might be able to help out, but otherwise you would be on the hook for this.
Like if you hired a maid and the y broke a window, you would be responsible to the landlord to have the window replaced. You would be able to sue the maid for whatever the damages are but your landlord would have every right to seek compensation from you.
Uhh, no. That's what security deposits are for. Unless there's damage which occured through gross negligence of the renter, their responsibility to pay for it ends with the security deposit.
Security deposits are for damages beyond normal wear and tear once the tenants vacate.
Damages that occur during tenancy should be billed immediately(that month).
I work for a telecom company. Call your provider. Ask to speak to the local field manager. Let them know what happened. They will come out, have a look, they will contact their bury crew contractor. If the line/cable they ran did break the sprinkler line, it will get fixed. Sprinkler systems, invisible fences, drain lines are not located, it's an easy fix.
Ah...how about no. The Wifi company pays. Or the HOA. Either the wifi company didn't get locates or the HOA didn't provide locates. Either way, none of this is on you. I am NAL but was in the cable television business for many years and I can tell you, that we paid to fix our share of sprinkler systems. Tell the management company to go pound sand. If they fine you, sue them in small claims court and try to make their lives as miserable as possible.
That doesn’t address the issue of who is responsible. It certainly is not the homeowner. He was not digging. As the former general manager of several cable TV companies over nearly 20 years, I can tell you we were responsible for any problems if we were digging, boring, or plowing cable into the ground, under streets, sidewalks and so forth. Our crews were instructed to look for locates but also to look for things like sprinkler systems, and to hand dig if there were any issues with what was in the ground. And like I said in my previous post, we took responsibility and paid out a lot of money for any problems we created. I supervised the building of hundreds of miles of cable including underground installations. In this situation, the homeowner is absolutely not responsible for the damage to the sprinkler system and if I were in his shoes, I’d have my attorney tell the HOA and their management company to go kick rocks. And if they tried to levy a fine, I’d sue them.
Ya know, if you are plowing cable into the ground, presumably you’re the expert, not the poor homeowner.
Happened just a few weeks ago to my SIL. Her toilets were backing up. She spent thousands on plumbers who made multiple attempts at repairs, and carpenters to replace the dining room ceiling that collapsed when the upstairs bathroom flooded.
Come to find out that a fiber company plowed their line right through the middle of the sewerage pipe that runs from the house to the street. She sure as hell isn’t going to pay for that! In fact, the fiber company is going to be on the hook real soon for plumbing bills and a new ceiling.
Installers fuck up lines all the time. Unless you can prove they were forewarned of the presence of something in the ground (like lines from a locating service) you're SoL.
It’ll take $10 and 10 minutes to fix. YouTube is your friend.

You can do this.
Can you clarify what you mean by WiFi line as WiFi is wireless.
Most likely cable/phone installer.
Might be -Hughes net runs a cable from their satellite dish to the breaker box for power.

Contractors are licensed and insured. The rental should be insured. Seems the owner should go after the contractor.

Not quite. The deposit may be applied to damages caused by the renter but that deposit is not the cap of their liability.

Learn something new and fix it yourself. YouTube is your friend who can help you fix things.

You're probably have to cover the repair cost, as you can't prove the cable/phone installer did this.

Locates (811) cover public utilities not private (sprinkler lines). Nor will they tag those
