Tenant Keeps Breaking Stuff!

What's the best way to handle a tenant that keeps breaking stuff? I have nothing against them personally. They appear to be great people...never late with the rent. Only problem, the home I'm renting to them is less than 6 years old and crap should'nt be breaking every other week. Granted it's not big stuff but I'm starting to feel like I'm being nickel and dimed. Our orignal agreement states that I'm responsible for repairs simply because I didn't want them breaking something then going out and paying for it themselves to in-turn try to negoitate rent for repairs. I feel like I need to revise our agreement somehow. For instance the latest repair is the kitchen sink is backed up.......There has been nothing wrong with the sink!

Any Suggestions will be appreciated.
thanx
