Subject: Urgent Repair Request for Broken Doors at [Address] [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to inform you about a concerning issue that requires your immediate attention and action. The purpose of this correspondence is to notify you that multiple doors within my rented premises at [Address] in Los Angeles, California are currently in a state of disrepair, jeopardizing both my safety and security. To provide you with a comprehensive understanding of the situation, I would like to outline the specific doors that require urgent repair: 1. Front Door: The primary entrance to the building is experiencing severe difficulties in proper closing, opening, and locking. This jeopardizes the security of the entire property, as it leaves it vulnerable to potential break-ins and puts the safety of all tenants at risk. 2. Bedroom Door: The door leading to my bedroom has a malfunctioning doorknob, making it extremely difficult to open and close. This poses a considerable inconvenience and, in emergency situations, could lead to potentially hazardous circumstances. 3. Balcony Door: The balcony door is currently damaged, preventing it from locking properly. This poses a significant security concern as it allows unauthorized access into the property, compromising the safety and privacy of all tenants. I kindly request your immediate attention and prompt action in addressing these pressing concerns to maintain a safe and secure living environment. I understand that repairs may require professional assistance, and I would greatly appreciate it if you could arrange for a licensed contractor or technician to assess the situation promptly. As per the terms of the rental agreement and California law, it is your legal responsibility as the landlord to address maintenance issues promptly, including repairs to doors, to ensure tenant safety and satisfaction. I kindly request that repairs commence within [insert reasonable timeframe, e.g., 48 hours], allowing adequate time for resolution. In accordance with California Civil Code Section 1942, failure to address these vital repairs within a reasonable timeframe could be considered a breach of your obligations as a landlord. I hope it will not be necessary to resort to legal measures or contacting relevant authorities to ensure my safety and rights as a tenant. To facilitate effective communication and documentation, I kindly request that you provide a written response within [insert timeframe, e.g., 7 days] confirming the necessary repair actions and a proposed timeline for completion. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I trust that you will recognize the urgency and prioritize the repair of the doors mentioned above. Together, we can ensure a safe living environment, enhancing the reputation of the property and fostering a positive landlord-tenant relationship. I look forward to your immediate response and resolution.
