IELTS GENERAL WRITING TASK 1

You did some damages to the kitchen area of your flat. Write a letter to your landlord explaining the following

– How the damage occurred

– The extent of damages

– What would you like your landlord to do?

SAMPLE ANSWER

Dear Sir,

I am CVD, your tenant from apartment 1011, Western Creek. I am writing to apologise for some damages that I accidentally did in the kitchen, and to request you to get them fixed as soon as possible.

I moved into your apartment about 15 days ago from India. I was not aware of the smoke alarm system. I started making paratha, an Indian flatbread, which needs some frying. Suddenly the smoke alarm started beeping and would not stop. In a panic I tried to remove it and its screw broke and it came off. Now, I cannot fix it back. I am aware that it would be risky to use the kitchen without the smoke alarm. Secondly, the kitchen drain is making noises, as I forgot to put the kitchen sink drain strainer on top, because of which maybe a spoon slipped inside.

The damages are not very big, but need immediate attention. It would be very kind of you if you could get these two problems, caused by me, fixed soon. I will be very careful in the future, so that such mishaps don’t occur.

Thanking you,

Yours faithfully,
