Description

We had a sewer back up the came up both toilets and in the bathroom and shower while we were gone the weekend of July 4th to 6th. Upon returning home we dicovered the back up which flooded into the hallways and bedrooms. Landlord had someone come up within the next few days to a week to fix the problem and check for damage.
Areas were inspected for mold sewage contamination and water damage. This process took about 3 days so we had to stay in an hotel. They had to remove floor tiles, carpet, door trim and drywall in hallways ,bathroom, and bedrooms. Since then our landlord has not done anything to fix it. Has had one person come out for an estimate over a month ago. We don't have any privacy while using the bathroom due to missing drywall and door trim. Have bare wood floors in hallways which we get splinters once in awhile.
Our rent was $1800 a month. We asked our landlord about paying $1500 per month till its fixed. We also have a serious roach problem outside and we have asked to an exterminator come out.
Landlord keeps giving false promises to get things fixed. Now going on 4 month with little to nothing being done.
So therefore I felt the need to file a complaint with the housing,building code offices since this is in the codes of loss of use of rooms. ( privacy of bathrooms and bedrooms). Need to know if we can have this inspected and how to proceed with complaint with landlord.
