It is a great trouble for the tenants in the rainy season if the apartment that they have rented develops any water logging or leakage problem. A tenant cannot undertake any repair work on his own behalf and thus has to inform the landlord of the existing problem and requesting him to undertake the necessary repairs. A complaint letter then informs the landlord what sorts of problems are being faced by the tenants.
Here is a sample complaint letter to the landlord:
From:
Marcy Dupont
Maple building,
Flat #7,
5th street,
New Orleans
To:
Mr. Charles Stuart
Maple Appt,
Lords Avenue,
New Orleans
21st May, 2010
Ref: Complaint letter
Dear Mr. Stuart,
I am writing to inform you that due to heavy rains in our city, for the past several days, there has been a problem of water seepage in our building.
Large quantity of water has collected on the terrace. As a result of which the water has seeped through the ceilings of Flats #7, 8, 9. Due to the seepage the wall and the ceiling plaster is being damaged .The seepage is further damaging the wallpaper and the woodwork also.
If the problem is not dealt timely then it can lead to extensive damage in all the flats. So I on behalf of all the tenants request you to look into the problem and do the needful as soon as possible.
Thanking you,
Yours truly,
Marcy
