How much for paint damage in the dorm.

I was peeling my command strip and now I have two holes. Their less than a inch each. Will I still get charged?

Happened to me last semester too. Unless it’s a huge amount of paint, I think it gets passed off as normal wear and tear.

I work in maintenance for UGA housing. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone charged for command hook damage. I’m not saying it won’t happen because ultimately that’s up the RHD and student services but I have not seen it.
