Cuyahoga Ohio Letter from Tenant to Landlord with Demand for Plumbing Repair Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a significant plumbing issue that requires immediate attention in my rental unit located at [address]. For the past few weeks, I have been experiencing a persistent plumbing problem. The issue primarily revolves around a leaking faucet in the kitchen sink, slow drainage in the bathroom tub, and occasional backups in the toilet. Despite my attempts to address these problems temporarily, they keep recurring and are becoming increasingly inconvenient. The leaking faucet in the kitchen sink has caused water to pool on the countertop, and my repeated attempts to tighten the faucet have failed. This poses a safety hazard and can potentially cause damage to the cabinetry. Additionally, the slow drainage in the bathroom tub has made it difficult to use for bathing or showering, as standing water accumulates and takes a considerable amount of time to drain. Moreover, the occasional backups in the toilet have been a persistent issue, leading to foul odors and a potential health hazard. This situation has caused significant inconvenience and directly impacts the habitability of the unit. As a tenant, I believe it is your responsibility as a landlord to promptly address and resolve these plumbing problems. According to the Ohio Landlord-Tenant Act, it is the landlord's duty to ensure that rental properties are in a safe and habitable condition. Under Section 5321.04(A), landlords are required to keep the plumbing fixtures and appliances in good working order. Therefore, I request that you immediately arrange for a qualified plumber to inspect and repair the plumbing issues within the next 24 hours. If the necessary repairs are not completed within this time frame, I will have no choice but to exercise my rights under the Ohio Landlord-Tenant Act to withhold rent until the plumbing problems are resolved. I greatly value my tenancy here and sincerely hope that we can promptly resolve this matter, ensuring a comfortable living environment. I kindly request that you respond to this letter in writing within the next two business days, acknowledging receipt and outlining your plan for addressing the plumbing issues. Please provide details regarding when a plumber will be scheduled for repairs, and any potential disruptions or access arrangements needed for the inspection. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt resolution and continued collaboration.
