A repair request that names an exact date is harder to shelve than one that says "soon." Build yours in a minute, then copy and send it.
A written repair request with a clear deadline does two jobs at once: it gives your landlord a specific date to act by, and it puts the whole exchange on the record in case you need to escalate later.
Fourteen days is a common ask for a mold repair, though what counts as reasonable varies by state and by how bad the problem is. A leak actively soaking a wall justifies a shorter window than a patch of mold on a window frame. Pick the deadline that fits your situation.

General guidance, not legal advice
Repair timelines and remedies differ by state and situation. For a dispute or a health concern, contact your local housing or health department, or a tenant-rights organization. Our state rights lookup shows how it typically works where you live.
