[Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, Zip Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, Zip Code] Subject: Request for Immediate Repairs to Floors, Stairs, and Railings Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my concern regarding the deteriorating condition of the floors, stairs, and railings in my rental unit at [Property Address]. It has come to my attention that these structural elements have reached a state of disrepair and pose potential safety hazards to both myself and any visitors to the property. As a responsible tenant, I believe it is my duty to bring to your attention the following specific issues that require your immediate attention: 1. Flooring: The floors in various areas of the unit have become unstable, with sections of loose floorboards and noticeable sagging. This poses a significant risk of tripping and injury, both to me and anyone occupying the property. I kindly request that you arrange for a professional inspection and subsequent repairs to ensure the floors are safe and stable. 2. Stairs: The staircase leading to the second floor has become unstable and wobbly. The handrail along the stairs is damaged, with loose or missing parts, making it unsafe to use. This poses a serious threat of falls and injuries. I urge you to arrange for a prompt repair of the stairs and replacement or repair of the handrail to ensure the safety of all residents. 3. Railings: The railings on the balcony and/or any other areas that have railings are also in a deteriorating state. Several portions are loose or missing, jeopardizing the safety of individuals, especially children and elderly occupants. It is imperative that you address this issue promptly to prevent any accidents or injuries from occurring. Given the critical nature of these repairs and the potential danger they pose, I kindly request that you take immediate action to rectify these issues. As per the rental agreement, it is the landlord's responsibility to ensure that the premises are maintained in a habitable and safe condition. I propose that we schedule a time to mutually inspect the premises to assess the extent of the damage and discuss the necessary repairs. I am available [mention preferred days and timings] and would appreciate it if you could suggest a suitable date and time. If these essential repairs are not addressed promptly, I may have no choice but to seek legal remedies to protect my rights as a tenant. However, I believe that we can come to a swift resolution without resorting to such measures. To safeguard our communication, it would be appreciated if you could confirm your receipt of this letter in writing via email or certified mail. I trust that you will give this matter the attention it deserves and promptly address the necessary repairs. I greatly value my tenancy at [Property Address] and hope that we can jointly ensure its safe and comfortable conditions. Thank you for your prompt attention in this matter.
