<human>: Hey /r/legaladvice I could use some guidance on this

So I'm selling my house and obviously there's a lot of prep work to do. All the work is finally done with the contractors and the painters and the realtors so I wanted to have a cleaning company come in and make the place look good so I can start showing the house.

I went to work for the day and the cleaners were scheduled to go do their work while I was gone. When I came home I found that they had done a frankly terrible job cleaning and I called the cleaning company to complain. I sent them some pictures and they apologized for the quality of the work and waived the fee.

So no harm no foul, right? Well later the next night I noticed a scratch on my wall with a small hole at the end of it. As best I can tell, it looks like someone scratched my wall with a key and then used it to poke a hole in the wall. Then after walking around my house I found that there were about 10 other identical scratch marks and other holes in the doors/walls throughout my house.

I want to take the cleaners to the cleaners (small claims court) to pay for the damages to my house. My only concern is that I don't have direct evidence that it was them. I know for sure it didn't happen at any point before they came, because that's when my house was painted, and the scratches cut into the brand new paint. And nobody but me was in my house between the cleaners leaving and me discovering the damage.

Is it worth it to try and sue? Is my timeline enough evidence that it couldn't have been anyone else? Or do I not have enough evidence that it was them?

I appreciate any advice, thanks.

Provide a brief overview of the text.
<bot>: Found damage to walls in my house after cleaners were there. It couldn't have possibly happened before they arrived and nobody but me has been in the house since. Is this enough to win in small claims court?
