Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a significant plumbing issue that has recently occurred in my apartment at [Apartment Address]. I have noticed several problems with the plumbing system, which urgently require your immediate attention and repair. Firstly, there is a persistent leak in the bathroom sink, which has been ongoing for the past [time period]. Despite my best efforts to fix it, the leak continues to worsen, causing significant water damage to the surrounding cabinets and floor. The continuous dripping has also led to an increase in my monthly water bills, which is quite concerning. Secondly, I have noticed a foul odor emanating from the kitchen drain for the past [time period]. This smell not only affects the overall hygiene of the apartment but also makes it uncomfortable to use the kitchen area. I believe this issue requires thorough inspection and maintenance of the drainage system to eliminate the odor permanently. Moreover, the water pressure in both the kitchen and bathroom has become significantly weak, making it difficult to perform basic daily tasks such as washing dishes or taking a shower. This decrease in water pressure has been consistent for the past [time period] and is not due to any actions on my part. I kindly request that you investigate the cause and take necessary actions to restore the water pressure to its normal state. Lastly, I have occasionally noticed a rattling noise coming from the walls whenever water is being used in the neighboring apartments. This noise is not only bothersome but also indicates a potential problem within the plumbing infrastructure. As a concerned tenant, I believe this issue should be addressed promptly to prevent any further damage to the building's plumbing system. I understand that dealing with these maintenance requests can be time-consuming and costly. However, as a tenant, I have the right to live in a habitable and well-maintained apartment. Therefore, I kindly request that you prioritize these repairs to ensure the functionality and livability of my apartment. Please provide me with a written response within [a reasonable timeframe] to acknowledge receipt of this letter and to inform me about the necessary steps that will be taken to address these plumbing issues. I would appreciate it if you could schedule a time for a professional plumber to inspect and repair the mentioned problems at the earliest convenience. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. I trust that you will handle these repairs in a timely manner to avoid further inconvenience.
