The previous post is not exactly accurate. The rules they are talking about apply to long term rentals only. And the site clearly distinguishes between a long term tenant and one who rents as a vacation home short term. ie week or month. Be sure you understand the difference. And the answer to your question is that if your lease clearly states the actions taken with the security deposit, then you can get the repairs completed and with hold that amount from the deposit.
