I do not have a list of contacts for my condo village, so I’m clueless on who to contact. Water was leaking from the ceiling (there’s a unit above mine) into my bathroom. Who would I contact and report this to? Is there a standard type of coverage that should fix any water damage? What should I do?
The leak was streaming from the ceiling into the shower (lucky me). The ceiling has a bloated bubble now about the size of 3 pancakes.

Our guest reported when it happened early Saturday morning, we called the management company who manages the unit upstairs. The property manager came out, looked around and decided that the washer was fine, he ignore my guest’s comment “it is the washer machine, I smelled laundry detergent” completely. In the early afternoon, right after our guest clean up water on our floor, water poured down again due to the renter’s running washer. We had to call 911 (we are 300 miles away) to get police officer out there to stop the renter upstairs from running her washer. We called our HOA, our HOA management called a plumber in. Plumber cut out a hole in our ceiling and found it was not a pipe problem, again, the plumber could not access the upstairs unit until Sunday close to noon. The plumber wrote a report about the cause, was the washer on
Sunday. Long story short, the owner’s insurance company came out and decided that they are not going to pay for anything. Our insurance company would not pay for it because the upstairs owner does have policy. We are left with thousands of dollars of mitigation and repair fees. Our HOA advises us that by law, it is the responsibility of the owner of the unit above us. We have no idea of how to pursue this issue. Any advices are appreciated.
