Dear <your landlord’s name>,

Re: Request for repairs at <your address>

I am writing again concerning the outstanding repair work needed at the above address. Please find enclosed copies of previous correspondence dated the <insert date(s) of previous correspondence>

So far you have not contacted me to arrange for the repair work to be carried out. I'm concerned that the disrepair is:
<You may want to stress that the disrepair is causing problems. For example:
·	adversely affecting my health or the health of other members of my household
·	making the property unsafe and may result in injury
·	damaging the premises and may lead to further disrepair
·	causing great inconvenience. >

If arrangements are not made to carry out the required repairs within <set time limit - eg two weeks>, you leave me no option but to carry out the repair work myself and deduct the cost from my rent. I'd therefore be most grateful if you could contact me as soon as possible to arrange for the repairs to be carried out.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours sincerely,
