What does your contract with the landlord provide? If it provides that you have to do all necessary repair and you have to pay, then no. This is a very unusual and an unlikely clause.

If it provides that Landlord will repair or will pay you for repair, then I hope you asked Landlord to pay.

If Landlord did not pay, then you have the right to sue him for the cost of repair. I do think you can just take it out unless your agreement was just that.
