मेरो बाथरूमको पाइपबाट पानी चुहिइरहेको छ। फ्लोरमा पानी जम्मा भइरहेको छ।

Agent

That sounds like an urgent repair. Under tenancy law, the landlord must fix urgent issues within twenty-four to forty-eight hours.

म दुई दिनदेखि मेसेज गरिरहेको छु तर कसैले जवाफ दिएन।

Agent

English

I apologise for the delay. I'll arrange a plumber to come today or tomorrow at the latest. You don't need to pay for the repair — it's the landlord's responsibility.

पानीले क्षति पुगेको छ भने को जिम्मेवार हुन्छ?

Agent

English

If the damage is caused by the leak and not by tenant negligence, the landlord's insurance should cover it. Please take photos as evidence.

अनि कार्पेट भिजेको छ, बास्ना पनि आउँछ।

Agent

English

We'll have the carpet professionally cleaned as well. Keep a record of all communication — dates, times, and what was discussed — in case there's a dispute later.

यदि मरम्मत नभए भने म कहाँ उजुरी गर्न सक्छु?

Agent

You can lodge a complaint with Fair Trading NSW, or apply to the NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal if the repairs aren't done. But I'll make sure we handle it quickly.
