Well, I'm getting ready to call for a third time as I have not gotten the slightest response from anyone even with it being marked as "urgent".
So, what does one do if you cannot even make communication? Am I really going to need to have a lawyer write them a letter since I cannot even get a f&$(ing courtesy callback?

You need to become very familiar with your local landlord tenant laws. Google your city/state and "landlord tenant act". They are Def in violation of many things knowing your rights (beyond the lease) should help.
Besides water, what about MOLD!!! MOLD = LAWSUIT as a landlord I promise you that is not something we want to mess with.
Finally if they will not rectify situation there are 1. Laws regarding how you must go about withholding rent if you want to have repairs made on your own or 2. Just call code enforcement and they will have to fix it or they will get a lein on their building and you will be able to pretty easily get out of your lease.
Landlord tenant act supersedes anything your lease says.
