When can I claim damages from an installation company?

Questioner

Installation company makes mistake which causes me water damage and inconvenience. I had to use my own contents?? They pay very little because of rented property so walls are building, Can I recover the remaining damage from the company, I have photos of incorrect installation, This was also seen and photographed by the tenants' association. This is already the second time that I suffer water damage because of them. First time an incorrect installation of pressure vessel, Now the condensation overflow was not connected.. BVD Kind regards

In general, the company (its insurer) must pay for the damage that has occurred if it is their fault. You can hold them liable for this in writing (by registered mail), in which case you can indeed still recover the (remaining) damage from them. You can report this to your own home contents insurance, but it is the insurance of the other party that must compensate the damage. If you would like help with this, I can assist you.
