Fontana California Letter from Tenant to Landlord with Demand for Repairs [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Re: Demanding Immediate Repairs to Floors, Stairs, and Railings Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a serious issue pertaining to the floors, stairs, and railings in my rented [apartment/house/condominium] located at [rental address] in Fontana, California. As a responsible and diligent tenant, I want to ensure that our living environment is safe and maintained in a habitable manner. First and foremost, I would like to bring to your attention the deteriorating condition of the floors. I have noticed numerous cracks and loose tiles throughout different areas of the property, including the kitchen, living room, and bathroom. These defects pose a significant safety hazard as they could result in trips, falls, or accidental injuries. It is crucial that repairs are carried out promptly to prevent any potential harm to myself or visitors to the premises. Furthermore, I have observed that the stairs leading to my unit are also in an unstable state. Some steps are uneven, and the handrail appears to be loose, providing inadequate support while ascending or descending the staircase. This not only poses a risk to my safety but also violates local building codes and regulations. I kindly request that you arrange for a comprehensive inspection and necessary repairs to rectify these issues immediately. Lastly, the railings on the exterior balconies necessitate urgent attention. The railings on my [balcony/patio] have become loose and wobbly, making them structurally unsound. This poses a considerable danger to anyone using the outdoor space and requires immediate repair or replacement to prevent accidents or injuries. It is crucial for the well-being and safety of all residents that these repairs are undertaken promptly. These maintenance issues not only compromise my personal safety but may also lead to legal liabilities if not addressed in a timely manner. I kindly request that you take the necessary actions to rectify the mentioned issues within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 14 days] as per the terms of our lease agreement. Please inform me in writing of the course of action you plan to take to resolve these matters. I trust that as a responsible landlord, you will prioritize the safety and well-being of your tenants and take immediate action to address these concerns. If repairs are not initiated within the specified timeframe, I may be left with no choice but to pursue appropriate legal remedies available to me under California's tenant laws. I remain hopeful that it will not come to this and that we can resolve the matter swiftly and amicably. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response.
