As per our lease agreement, it is your responsibility to ensure the premises are safe and habitable. Unfortunately, recent inspections have revealed serious concerns regarding the structural integrity and safety of these key areas. Therefore, I kindly request your immediate attention and prompt action to resolve these issues in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations. Body: 1. Damaged Floors: The floors in my residence have suffered significant wear and tear, resulting in uneven surfaces, loose or broken tiles, and tripping hazards. This poses a potential threat to the safety of any occupants, including myself and my guests. I urge you to conduct a thorough inspection and initiate necessary repairs to restore safe and functional flooring throughout the premises. 2. Defective Stairs: The stairs within the premises exhibit noticeable signs of decay and instability. Several steps are loose, making them wobbly and dangerous to traverse. The lack of adequate handrails along some sections exacerbates the risk, particularly for elderly and disabled individuals who may reside or visit the property. It is essential that you promptly address these issues to ensure the safe usage of the stairway. 3. Faulty Railings: The overall condition of the railings on the premises is of great concern. Many railings are loose, rusty, or missing altogether, compromising the safety of individuals who rely on them for support and stability. The absence of secure railings heightens the risk of falls or accidents, which can result in severe injuries. It is imperative that you take immediate action to repair, replace, or install sturdy railings to ensure the well-being and security of all occupants. Conclusion: In light of the aforementioned concerns, I kindly request that you act swiftly to address the flooring, stairs, and railing issues present within the rented premises.
