Tell the landlord to get them fixed.

yeah just ring him let him know whats happened. sounds like a small job to patch up the fallen tiles, not a big deal at all tbh

Get them fixed by him/her. You don't want them saying you damaged them when you move out and charging them from your deposit!

We'd a similar situation in our shower.. called the landlord and he sent a guy over, guy said the plaster behind the shower was f****d so the landlord ripped out the shower and put a new one in. Sweet..
