my top floor neighbor negligently drilled into a main water line in our newly built apartment causing water leakage from their top floor all the way down to the basement. Timeline: 03/05 8pm: started hearing water drip. I thought I accidentally left a faucet running. nope! steady water leakage 8:15pm: management emergency line notified. rep says i was the 2nd person to call 8:30pm: knocked on the doors of my upstairs and downstairs neighbors- nobody was home except the perpetrators (4th floor) 8:45pm: 2nd call to management re: est time someone was coming 9pm: perpetrator knocks on my door asking if the water was still leaking. no shit? 9:45pm: at this point, i was having a mental breakdown. had emptied the bucket and pots handful of time. unclear when ANYONE was coming to do anything 10:00pm: poor maintenance worker had to shut off the main power line and electricity bc the damage was too much then an email sent out ways into the next day’s afternoon saying they’re going to fan out the walls to avoid further damage. no other info. just “fanning” i get home today from work after staying over at a friend’s apartment for the couple of nights, only to come home to HOLES in my ceiling and fans PLUGGED into my own electricity line, air/dust circulating all around, my personal belongings dumped on my bed using my own blanket as cover. all i see are damaged stuff and items i will have to clean because of that dumb neighbor- which i hope none of y’all ever have. i started a claim with my renter’s insurance. any thoughts, suggestions how else i can proceed? both with management and the neighbor who created this whole mess. and the water being brown??? 🤮 submitted by /u/EasyDragonfruit1 |
