Subject: Tenant Notice: Request for Repair of Premises Leak during Rainfall [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, Zip Code] Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to bring to your attention a concerning issue regarding my rented property located at [Property Address]. Specifically, I have observed significant leakages during rainfall, which require immediate attention and repair. As a responsible tenant, it is essential to promptly notify you of any wellbeing concerns that may arise within the premises. Unfortunately, heavy rains over the past week have exposed a recurring issue that can no longer be ignored. The leaks have now become severe enough to impact the safety and habitability of the property. Outlined below are the details of the leaks and their potential consequences: 1. Location of Leaks: ā The living room ceiling exhibits dripping from multiple points, leading to wet patches and water stains. ā The bedroom window adjacent to the main entrance also experiences water infiltration during rainfall, resulting in dampness on the walls and flooring. ā The bathroom ceiling shows signs of leakage, with water dripping into the bathtub. 2. Potential Consequences: ā Damage to personal belongings, furniture, and fixtures present in the affected areas. ā Risk of electrical hazards due to water intrusion, compromising the overall safety of the property. ā Formation of mold, mildew, and rotting of wooden structures, which can contribute to health issues and further property damage. ā A decrease in property value and marketability due to the compromised structural integrity caused by persistent leaks. Considering the potential risks associated with the unrepaired leaks, I kindly request that you take immediate action to mitigate this issue. As per our Rental Agreement, it is your responsibility as the landlord to ensure that the premises are maintained in good and habitable condition throughout my tenancy. In light of the above, I kindly request the following actions be taken: 1. Promptly arrange for a professional inspection of the property to assess the extent of the leaks and identify their root causes. 2. Engage qualified contractors or repair personnel to complete all necessary repairs to the affected areas. 3. Provide a clear timeline for the repair works and keep me informed throughout the process. I emphasize the urgency of addressing this matter promptly as further delay may exacerbate the damage, risking the comfort and safety of both the property and its occupants. If necessary, I am willing to allow access to the unit at a reasonable time to expedite the inspection and repairs. Furthermore, I would appreciate your confirmation in writing to acknowledge the receipt of this notice and specify the action plan for resolving the issue at the earliest convenience. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I trust that you will prioritize the required repairs and work towards ensuring optimal living conditions within the property. I look forward to a swift resolution that prevents any further damage and inconvenience. Please find attached photographic evidence of the observed leaks for your reference.
