Can I legally breach a contract if landlord is providing an inadequate environment to conduct business?

I am a stylist who rented a booth at a salon. There were power/water outages that forced me to hastily reschedule/cancel clients and lose income as a result. Additionally the business owner failed to renew the salon's license. (a license that is required by law to operate the salon). My contract stated that I provide 2 weeks notice before end of contract. The contract also stated that "company shall execute fairness, honesty, and integrity in handling of all renters and all business" A recent power outage forced me to find employment elsewhere and leave with only less than 24 hours notice.
