1,019 chars*166In light of the above, and in light of competent evidence that the landlord, in good faith, did attempt to remedy defective conditions and services, this court awards the tenants damages in the amount of 10% of their rent for a three-month period. It is also important to note that most of the alleged deficiencies in services and conditions no longer exist, having been repaired by the landlord. A court may assess damages, as opposed to awarding an abatement of rent due to a diminution of the value of a dwelling caused by the absence of bargained for services. (Goodman v Ramirez, 100 Misc 2d 881.) This court awards “tort-like” damages rather than a “contractually based” rent abatement because of its inability to determine precisely the extent of the loss of services for precise periods of time. The damages awarded here are allowable and determinable under a theory similar to an allowance of damages for “pain and suffering” or mental distress. (See Stern v Hotel Carter, NYLJ, Feb. 26, 1980, p 6, col 2.)
