Subject: Urgent Repair Request for Broken Windows — Tenant's Demanding Action Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to discuss a matter of utmost importance that requires your immediate attention and action. The purpose of this letter is to formally request repairs for the broken windows in my [apartment/home/property] located at [address] in Surprise, Arizona. Firstly, let me express my gratitude for providing such a comfortable living space for me and my family. We have enjoyed residing here immensely. However, the recent damage to the windows has become a significant concern, affecting not only our comfort but also our safety and security. The broken windows pose various risks that cannot be ignored. These risks include: 1. Weather-related issues: With monsoon season approaching, the exposed windows can permit rainwater, strong winds, and other weather elements to enter the premises. This puts the interior at risk of potential water damage and mold growth, adversely affecting the structural integrity and the health of its occupants. 2. Security compromise: Broken windows create an open invitation for burglars, vandals, and trespassers to enter the property. This compromises the safety and security of both the tenants and their belongings, which is a significant concern not only for ourselves but also for the overall community. 3. Energy inefficiency: The broken windows allow the cool air provided by the air conditioning unit to escape outside, resulting in increased energy consumption. This is not only an inconvenience for us as tenants but also contradicts any efforts towards conserving energy and reducing excessive utility bills. Given the urgency of the situation and the potential risks involved, I hereby implore you to take swift action to address this critical issue. I request that the repairs be initiated within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 7 days] from the date of receipt of this letter. I understand that unexpected circumstances could impact the repair timeline, but your timely response and communication would be greatly appreciated. In light of the foregoing, I would like to propose the following course of action: 1. Window Repair/Replacement: Please arrange for a professional window repair/replacement company to assess and rectify the damage promptly. It would be ideal if the chosen service provider has established expertise and experience in window repairs to ensure a high-quality and lasting solution. 2. Notification of Progress: Kindly keep me informed of the progress made towards resolving this matter. Regular updates will alleviate any concerns and enable me to coordinate my schedule accordingly. 3. Cost Considerations: As per our lease agreement, it is understood that the responsibility for maintenance and repairs falls under your jurisdiction. Therefore, I trust that any expenses incurred in fixing the broken windows will be borne by you. I hope you appreciate the gravity of the situation and understand my genuine concern for the safety and well-being of my family. I believe that by promptly addressing this issue, we can maintain the harmonious tenant-landlord relationship we have cultivated. Furthermore, I kindly request written confirmation of receiving this repair demand letter and your commitment to initiating the necessary actions. Furthermore, I will be happy to discuss any concerns you may have or provide further details to facilitate the resolution process. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I anticipate a swift resolution and look forward to hearing from you soon.
