Repairs at Your Rental - Whose Job Is It, Anyways?
Briefly

California law mandates that housing providers must make repairs in a reasonable timeframe once notified by the tenant, but does not specify what constitutes 'reasonable'.
The law typically considers a timeframe of 30 days from the receipt of the complaint as sufficient for housing providers to complete necessary repairs.
In certain instances, repairs must occur immediately, such as those affecting hot water or security features like doors and windows, highlighting the urgency of some matters.
Housing providers must ensure the property is habitable according to Civil Code § 1941.1, which includes essentials like effective waterproofing, functioning plumbing, and safe conditions.
