It's too late for that, the time to do that is before you move in. Anytime you move into a rental of any type, it's very important to list all existing damage to the unit. This means every chipped or scratched counter top, spots or rips in the carpet, ripped screens etc etc etc. Be very detailed. Have the landlord sign it before you sign the lease. There are landlords out there that will charge multiple tenants for the same damage that often existed even before the landlord owned it. It's not too hard to nickel & dime a deposit away
