I am writing to bring to your attention the dire need for immediate repair of the unsafe or broken lights and wiring in my rented premises located at [Address]. As your tenant, I have the right to a safe and habitable living environment, which includes proper functioning of the electrical system. Unfortunately, for some time now, I have been experiencing multiple issues with the light fixtures and electrical wiring throughout the property. I have documented the specific problems as follows: 1. Broken Lights: Several light fixtures in various rooms are either completely non-functional or have flickering bulbs. The lack of adequate lighting poses a safety hazard and interferes with my ability to carry out basic activities safely. 2. Electrical Outlets: A number of electrical outlets are faulty, resulting in inconsistent power supply or inoperative sockets. This creates inconvenience and limits my ability to use essential electrical appliances. 3. Wiring Defects: Upon inspection and based on the advice of a licensed electrician, it has come to my attention that there are wiring defects within the walls, potentially causing further electrical issues. These defects may include loose connections, exposed wires, or inadequate grounding, which poses significant safety risks like electrical shocks or fire hazards. Given the severity of these electrical problems, I kindly demand that you undertake immediate repairs to rectify these issues and restore the safe functioning of the electrical system. I believe it is in both our best interests to address these concerns promptly to avoid any potential legal or safety ramifications. I also request that you conduct these repairs with the assistance of a licensed and experienced electrician to ensure compliance with all applicable safety codes and standards. Please provide me with a detailed timeline for when the repairs will commence and when they are expected to be completed. If repairs are not initiated within a reasonable timeframe, as required by law, I may be compelled to take further action, including involving local authorities or pursuing legal remedies to protect my rights as a tenant. I trust that, as a responsible and conscientious landlord, you will address these concerns promptly and efficiently. I would appreciate your immediate attention to this matter and a written response acknowledging the receipt of this letter and your plans for remediation. Thank you for your cooperation. I look forward to a positive resolution that ensures the safety and habitability of my rented premises.
