Title: Austin Texas Letter from Tenant to Landlord with Demand to Repair Unsafe or Broken Lights or Wiring Date: [Enter Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Dear [Landlord's Name], I am writing to bring to your attention a serious concern regarding the unsafe or broken lights or wiring in my rented premises at [Tenant's Address], [City, State, ZIP]. As a responsible tenant, I believe it is my duty to notify you of these issues to ensure the safety and well-being of all residents and the property itself. [Optional: If applicable, briefly describe the maintenance or repair issues you have encountered, such as flickering lights, exposed wiring, non-functioning fixtures, or any other potentially hazardous conditions.] Upon realizing these problems, I sought professional advice, and it has been advised that these issues warrant immediate attention to prevent any potential hazards, including fire, electrical shock, or injury. Neglecting to address these concerns not only violates our lease agreement and your responsibilities as a landlord but also poses serious risks to all occupants and property. According to the Texas Property Code, Section 92.052, landlords are responsible for maintaining the premises in a safe and habitable condition. This includes ensuring that all electrical systems, including lights and wiring, are properly installed, maintained, and functioning according to industry safety standards. Hereby, I kindly request that you take prompt action to remedy the unsafe or broken lights or wiring in my rented premises. I propose the following necessary steps to ensure the prompt resolution of this issue: 1. Arranging for a licensed electrician to conduct a thorough inspection of the electrical system in my unit, including the lights and wiring, to identify any potential hazards or code violations. 2. Repairing or replacing any faulty or damaged lights, fixtures, switches, or outlets identified during the inspection. 3. Rectifying any faulty or exposed wiring to meet the required safety standards. I kindly request that these repairs be scheduled and executed within a reasonable timeframe, considering the urgency and potential hazards associated with these electrical issues. I trust that you acknowledge the importance of prioritizing the safety and welfare of your tenants. Furthermore, I also request that you provide written confirmation of the scheduled repair date(s) and outline the specific actions that will be taken to address these concerns. Additionally, I would appreciate regular updates regarding the progress made towards resolving this issue until it is fully rectified. Failure to address these serious concerns within the legal timeframe, as stated in the Texas Property Code, may leave me with no choice but to consider alternative options, such as exercising my rights under the lease agreement or seeking legal remedies available to tenants. I anticipate your prompt attention to this matter, as it is of utmost importance to safeguard the well-being of all residents and to ensure the property's compliance with the relevant safety regulations. Please contact me at [Your Phone Number] or [Your Email Address] to communicate any updates or to schedule the necessary repairs. Thank you for your immediate attention and cooperation in resolving this critical matter. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Tenant's Address] [City, State, ZIP]
