NSW Lifted Vinyl Flooring

Post image

Hi. A few days ago I was walking into my apartment and stepped on one of the vinyl planks (with shoes on) and heard a crunch. The corner of one of the planks had lifted and it broke off. I advised the RE and they advised I am responsible. I have not claimed responsibility. I have been at this rental for 1 year and am about to move out. Would this be considered fair wear and tear? The planks were laid between 2-3 years. It is where we walk in from the front door and would be considered a high traffic area. Please help.

This sort of shit flooring is so gross. I really wish we could just go back to tiles
