Description

This form is used by a tenant to inform the landlord of a problem with the lease premises, specifically a leak in the roof. With this form, the tenant makes a request for repair pursuant to the lease. Subject: Urgent Repair Required for Rain Leakage in the Premises — Notice from Tenant to Landlord Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to bring to your immediate attention a pressing issue that has arisen in the premises I am occupying at [property address], Charlotte, North Carolina. During recent rainfalls, it has come to my attention that there are multiple leaks throughout the property, causing significant damage and disruption to my living condition. I would like to emphasize the urgency of addressing this matter promptly to mitigate any further damage and potential hazards. There are three types of leaks that require immediate attention: 1. Roof Leakage: Upon inspection, it became apparent that the roof in several areas of the building is compromised, resulting in water intrusion during rainfall. This has led to water seeping into the walls and ceilings within my dwelling, which poses a threat to the structural integrity of the property and potentially endangers the safety of its occupants. 2. Window Leakage: Additionally, the windows in my unit have proven to be ineffective in preventing water entry during heavy rain episodes. Water is seeping through the gaps and accumulating on the window sills, causing damage to the surrounding area. This issue not only affects the aesthetics of the property but also presents the risk of mold and mildew growth if left unaddressed. 3. Plumbing Leakage: I have also noticed water seepage from the plumbing fixtures within the property, particularly in the bathroom. This leakage not only wastes precious water resources but also leads to an unpleasant, damp environment, which can foster mold growth and compromise the health of the occupants. Considering the lease agreement and the legal obligations of landlords in North Carolina, I kindly request that you prioritize these repairs and undertake the necessary actions to rectify these issues promptly. I understand that maintenance and repairs are a part of the landlord's responsibilities, as outlined in North Carolina's Residential Rental Agreements Act. As a responsible tenant, I have taken measures to protect the property by placing buckets and towels to minimize water damage as a temporary solution. However, these measures cannot suffice in the long term, and I urge you to engage professional contractors to assess and remediate the leaks adequately. In light of the urgency and severity of this situation, I kindly request that you provide a detailed timeline of when the repairs will commence and an estimated timeframe for their completion. It is essential to my well-being and the preservation of your property that these issues are resolved in a timely manner. If necessary, I am prepared to discuss potential alternative living arrangements during the repair period to ensure my safety and comfort. Please let me know if this becomes a requirement in order to facilitate the repairs without any undue delays. I trust that you will treat this matter with the utmost urgency and prioritize the repairs accordingly. I hope for your prompt response within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 7 days] to address this critical issue. Failure to take appropriate action may result in further damage, jeopardizing the habitability of the property and potentially infringing on my rights as a tenant. I remain willing to cooperate throughout this process and hope for a swift resolution. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to receiving your written confirmation of the planned repair actions, along with the proposed timeline, at your earliest convenience. Yours sincerely, [Tenant's Name] [Contact Information]
