Perfectly reasonable. Literally just had a diverter valve fail. Symptoms can be hot water only works when heating on, or water hot and rads cold.

Sometimes just needs valve motor swap only.

Wise to get gas safe test though afterwards.

Landlord can top up pressure do resets and can take a cover off to look in case of a water leak say , he can insulate the condensate pipe but thats about it. If you call the council on him it will sour your relationship so be diplomatic  
I  
Do test your CO detector as a priority in the interim
