Saskatchewan Repair Demand — The Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 s.49
Saskatchewan stage-1 repair letter. Send this when your landlord is not fixing what they're supposed to fix. The letter cites The Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (SS 2006, c.R-22.0001) s.49 (landlord's repair duty), the Public Health Act overlay, and signals you will file Form 9 at the Office of Residential Tenancies if the landlord does not act. The ORT can order the actual repairs (specific performance under s.70(6)(a)) — not just money. Filing $50 (waivable for low income). Plain-language wizard; UPL-safe under LPA 1990 c.L-10.1.

Your tenancy
Let's start with the basics. In Saskatchewan, your landlord has to keep your home in good repair and fit to live in. That's the rule under section 49 of The Residential Tenancies Act, 2006. And here's the good news — Saskatchewan's tenancy tribunal can order the landlord to do the actual repairs (not just give you money).
This letter will cite
Saskatchewan The Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (SS 2006, c.R-22.0001) ss.8, 42(1), 43, 44, 49(1)(a), 49(1)(b), 49(4), 49(6), 49(7), 56(2)-(3), 70(1), 70(2.3), 70(6), 70(6)(a), 70(6)(c), 70(11)(a), 71, 71.1, 72, 77; Public Health Act, 1994 c.P-37.1 ss.18-29; Limitations Act SS 2004 c.L-16.1 s.5; Legal Profession Act, 1990 SS 1990-91, c.L-10.1
Your letter cites s.49 (repair covenant), s.43 (services & facilities), and signals a Form 9 application to the ORT for a specific-performance compliance order under s.70(6)(a) plus rent abatement / damages, with the Public Health Act as a parallel track.
Before you start
What exactly do I get, and when?
A personalized PDF letter, written around the statute that applies to your situation, with the deadline and the consequence spelled out. It downloads the moment payment confirms, back here on commoner-law.com — there is no waiting period and no account to create. You can also add certified mail at checkout and we will send the physical letter for you.
How much is it?
$19, once. Not a subscription, and nothing is charged until you complete payment on Stripe at the end of the wizard. Any add-ons you select show their own price before you pay.
Is this legal advice?
This is a self-help template, not legal advice. Using this template does not create a solicitor-client relationship. The Legal Profession Act, 1990 permits self-representation in Saskatchewan ORT proceedings; the 2025 amendments added limited-licence non-lawyer providers. For free support: ORT 1-888-215-2222; CLASSIC; PLEA; Pro Bono Law Saskatchewan. Saskatchewan does NOT permit unilateral repair-and-deduct — keep paying rent and ask the ORT for reimbursement.
What if I need to change something afterwards?
Tell us and we will either adjust the letter and send you the updated version at no cost, or refund you in full — your choice. If we can’t deliver what you paid for, the refund is automatic. Full terms are on our promise page.
Do I have to pay to know if I have a case?
No. The rights encyclopedia on this site is free and cites the same primary sources the letter does. Read the relevant guide first — plenty of situations are resolved by a phone call to a free statutory body, and where one exists we say so.
