real-estate property damages
Who&#39;s responsible for property damage?
<p>Hypothetically if there was a leak during apartment renovations on floor B which damaged the apartment on floor A below, the contractor blames the building and the building blames the contractor.</p>
<p>Is the owner of an apartment on floor B responsible for paying the owner of the apartment on floor A? Or is this between the contractor and the apartment owner?</p>

<p>There is no way to know without a detailed factual investigation by experts regarding what happened. Both are possible. It is also possible that more than one person has legal responsibility.</p>
<p>Making an insurance claim may be the sensible first step for the occupants of the apartment below.</p>
