Apt Water pipe burst causing water damage
Hi forum! Recently, about a couple of days ago, my apartment building alarm went off. Found that a water pipe broke above my unit causing water to come through the ceilings and walls. Multiple apartments were affected. My laptop and other items were damaged by the water. I have renter’s insurance.
The question I have is what are my rights? Currently they have two huge machines to dry out the water damage on the walls and ceiling. These machines were dusty and I started coughing after the machines were blowing all day and night.
Is this appropriate? To have large machines in my unit? I have a toddler and wondering if this violates my health and safety rights?
