If the wall has been damaged because of any leakage due to your uncle on second floor you are entitled to claim money for the same.
We have appropriate remedy to file a case against them if needed.
Feel free to have a word with me.
All the best

please, clarify first that whether you and your uncle both are co-owner or living in inherited property?
if you are living jointly then both are liable for damaged walls and burden on both of you, if you are living alone from your uncle then your uncle is liable only.
