Title: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Letter from Tenant to Landlord: Notice of Premises Leaking During Rain and Demand for Repair Keywords: Pittsburgh Pennsylvania, letter, tenant, landlord, notice, premises leaks, rain, repair, demand --- [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Notice of Premises Leaking During Rain and Demand for Repair Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health. I am writing to bring to your immediate attention the ongoing issue of persistent roof leaks in the rental property at [Property Address], hereinafter referred to as the "Premises." Considering our landlord-tenant relationship and the terms outlined in the lease agreement dated [Lease Start Date], I kindly request your prompt attention and immediate action to address this matter. It has come to my attention that during periods of rain, water consistently breaches the roof and intrudes into the Premises, causing significant damage to the interior and posing potential health and safety hazards. The leaking water has already resulted in damaged ceilings, discoloration of walls, and the formation of mildew and mold. These conditions not only affect the overall livability of the Premises but also jeopardize the value of the property. According to Section [relevant clause number] of the lease agreement, you, as the landlord, are responsible for maintaining the Premises in a habitable condition and ensuring all necessary repairs are promptly completed. Given the severity and potential consequences associated with the ongoing leaks, I must insist on immediate repairs to rectify this issue and prevent any further damage. Neglecting to address this matter could violate statutory obligations, and I trust that you value both the Premises and our tenant-landlord relationship enough to resolve this matter without involving any legal steps. Moreover, the leaks pose not only a threat to my personal property but also to my health, as prolonged exposure to moisture and mold can lead to respiratory ailments. To safeguard the well-being of all occupants, it is crucial that repairs be undertaken without delay. I recommend hiring a professional contractor specializing in roofing repairs to adequately address the leaks and eradicate any potential structural weaknesses. I kindly request that you take this matter seriously and address it within [reasonable time frame, such as 14 days] from the receipt of this letter. Furthermore, I expect repairs to be conducted by a licensed professional, and I kindly request that you provide me with ample notice regarding the date and time of the repairs, to ensure my availability for any access required to the Premises. In the event of failure to respond to this notice or repair the Premises within the mentioned timeframe, I may be compelled to explore legal remedies available to me under Pennsylvania law, including seeking compensation for damages and terminating the lease agreement. However, I genuinely hope that such actions will not be necessary and that we can resolve this issue amicably. I look forward to your prompt attention to this matter. Please acknowledge receipt of this letter in writing and provide a detailed outline of the steps you intend to take to rectify the leaks. Should you have any further questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at your earliest convenience. Thank you for your prompt attention and cooperation. I trust that we can resolve this matter swiftly and maintain the positive landlord-tenant relationship we have enjoyed thus far. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Signature]
