Bedroom Ceiling Mould

The situation

You have noticed black mould spreading across the ceiling of your rented bedroom after weeks of rain. You reported it by email ten days ago but received no reply, and you have started waking up with a cough. Speak to your landlord on the phone: describe the problem politely and ask for a repair date.

Model answer

Hello, it's your tenant from the unit on the second floor. Sorry to call, but I wanted to follow up on the email I sent ten days ago about the mould in my bedroom. It's spread quite a lot across the ceiling with all the rain, and I've started waking up with a cough, so I'm a bit concerned about my health. I understand you're busy, but could you let me know when someone can come and treat it? If it helps, I'm home most afternoons this week. Thanks very much.
