I have a problem in my apartment. What can I do?
Start by talking to your landlord or property owner. Whenever possible, submit your service request in writing. This can cover issues like plumbing problems, leaking ceilings, pests, lack of heat or water, or problems in common areas.
Landlords are required to respond promptly. For urgent issues—such as problems with electricity, gas, heat, water, or security—they must respond within 24 hours. For non-urgent issues, they have up to seven days to address the problem.
If your landlord doesn't respond or resolve the issue, you can contact 311 Toronto to create a service request. The city can then investigate under the RentSafeTO program. You can submit your request by phone, using the 311 mobile app, via the 311 website, or by email at 311@toronto.ca. For more information about service requests, complaints, and investigations, visit the City of Toronto's RentSafeTO for Tenants page.
After you report to 311, a bylaw enforcement officer may reach out for additional details, such as photos or a copy of your written request to the landlord. For urgent complaints, the city aims to respond within 24 hours; for non-urgent complaints, response time is typically 5–10 days. The officer can issue a Notice of Violation or Order to Comply. If the landlord still fails to act, the city can escalate the situation, including fines, court action, or performing remedial work with costs added to the property.
