Renton Washington Letter from Tenant to Landlord with Demand that landlord repair broken windows: [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Subject: Urgent Repair Request — Broken Windows Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention an urgent issue regarding broken windows in my rented property at [Your Address]. It has come to my attention that several windows in the premises are damaged and require immediate repair. I kindly request that you take prompt action to address this matter in accordance with our rental agreement and state laws. The broken windows pose significant concerns with regard to security, insulation, and overall habitability of the property. I have noticed the following windows that are in need of repair: 1. Living Room Window: The large window in the living room, facing the front yard, has a noticeable crack running diagonally across the glass. This not only compromises the visual appeal of the property but also raises safety concerns related to potential break-ins. 2. Kitchen Window: The kitchen window, above the sink, is partially shattered with sharp glass edges visible. This poses a safety risk, particularly when I am washing dishes or preparing meals in proximity. 3. Bedroom Windows: Both bedroom windows on the second floor exhibit signs of damage. The left window has a large hole near the bottom, and the right window has a significant crack on the upper left-hand side. These defective windows compromise the privacy and security of the bedrooms. 4. Bathroom Window: The small window in the bathroom, adjacent to the shower area, is cracked and allows moisture to seep through. This can potentially lead to water damage and mold issues if left unattended. I emphasize that timely repairs are essential for my continued comfort, safety, and enjoyment of the property. I kindly request that you arrange for a professional window repair service to promptly inspect and fix the aforementioned broken windows. As per the terms of our rental agreement and the Washington State Landlord-Tenant Act, it is your responsibility to provide and maintain a habitable living environment. The broken windows not only breach this obligation but also expose you to potential liability should any accidents or damages occur due to the defective conditions. I kindly request that you acknowledge receipt of this letter within the next [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 5 business days] and provide me with an update on when the repairs will commence. I trust that you understand the importance of addressing this matter promptly and ensuring the safety and satisfaction of your tenants. Please feel free to contact me at [your phone number] or [your email address] to discuss any further details or to arrange a convenient time for the repairs. Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.
