Where can I claim water damage?

Questioner

The pressure relief valve of the boiler broke at the upstairs neighbours. The water entered the hall and damaged the parquet floor. The landlord upstairs will not pay anything because we do not have home contents insurance. To date, he has not provided any information on how it will be handled. Where can I claim water damage?

Lawyer

Good afternoon, In principle, the upstairs neighbors are liable if damage has occurred to their property, causing you to suffer damage to your property. The easiest option is of course via your own home contents insurance, but if you do not have insurance, the (insurance of) the other party must pay out. Please feel free to contact us without obligation to discuss the possibilities (tel. 06-49175526). Kind regards, Silvienne Leito FerLei Legal
