When I had lazy roommates oh so long ago, what use to do was subtract my time cleaning from my part of the rent. Worked like a charm. Helps if the rent/utilities are not in your name. I had a part time job so i charged the rate I got at my job, if I did the dishes, it may have taken me say 15 minutes but deducted a full hours pay from my rent money. Pissed my roommate off big time, he quickly started to do the dishes.
Just an fyi, if your having this trouble with a roommate, just becareful if you share any bills in your name..etc. Its always a good idea imo to never, NEVER have any utilites or the apartment in your name. Too easy for roommates to skip out of.
