How to use this tool

Landlords are legally required to maintain rental properties in a habitable condition. A written repair request creates a formal record — making it much harder for them to claim they were never informed.

Tips for a stronger letter

  • -Always report repairs in writing, even if you've already mentioned it verbally.
  • -Include photos of the issue as attachments.
  • -Set a reasonable response deadline (e.g. 48 hours for urgent, 7 days for non-urgent).
  • -If they fail to act, contact your local housing authority or tenant rights organisation.
