Do not replace with a higher amp unless you have the proper wiring rated for that amperage.
Breakers do on occasion, go bad.

Just because it does NOT look tripped untrip it manually (to OFF) and push it back to ON. Personally, you need to find out how many things he's turning on/using on that circuit that's causing it to trip. FWIW, if it was a licensed electrician, it's not the electricians fault...it's the idiot plugging too many things in/on at the same time. Chances are you'll need to change the 15 out and put a 20 in.
