Water leakage from terrace what to do
26-Jun-2023 (In Consumer Court Law)
In our Apartment there is water leakage problem for the top floor apartments from terrace, can someone tell us whether the builder is liable to repair those or it has to be repaired by the owners of the top floors. Also let us know in future if the same happens than in that case whether the cost for repair has to be borne by all the apartment owners or only the top floor owners? Our apartment is 2 yrs old.
A case in the District consumer court ACN be filed basing on the problem.
Builder/developer agreement need to be checked, terms and conditions, and responsibilities of the builder/developer need to be studied before coming to any conclusion.
If it's poor construction then definitely a case can be filed after getting it photographed and a report from any govt recognised engineer highlighting the defects in the construction and this can be taken in to account.
Still many more details are required to substantiate it.

In apartments this kind of issue come very usual we cannot question the builder on it because he have already deliver all the flats and apartment to its welfare association and we cannot question the flat owner also it should be borne by apartment welfare association only.
