- When did it happen?
- Suggest how the damage can be fixed.

Dear John,
How is your holiday going? I hope you have a great time there. I am writing to tell you an accident happened last night in your kitchen and proposing a quick fix for that.
As you know, I have been looking after your apartment since you went for vacation last week. Everything was fine until a terrifying accident I encountered in the kitchen. I was ready to cook some food at 7pm yesterday as usual. I turned on the light of the range hood and the light was broken. Then I tried to change the bulb, which unfortunately caused the short circuit of the whole kitchen.
I am really sorry about the inconvenience to which you have been put. I would like to suggest to buy a new fuse for replacement, so I could check out whether it caused other damages in the appliances there. If so, this should be just a simple fix.
Please let me know what you think and hope this small accident doesn't ruin your mood in your holiday.
Best Regards,
Michael
