Do I have to pay rent while my apartment is inaccessible due to fire damage and repairs?

Post Body
Hey.
Had a fire in my building, my unit didn't catch fire but the whole building has to be closed while they inspect for damage. Currently repairs are estimated to take more than a month, during which time the place is uninhabitable.
(Legally) am I still expected to pay rent during this time? While it's not the landlord's fault I assume inability to access a service/good negates having to pay for it?
