QUOTE(Aizat2402 @ May 5 2025, 12:09 PM) Floor below mine lodged a report of leakage at their bathroom ceiling. Floor trap end cap? Did your tenant stick/ rod bang jolok from the floor trap?Management checked and reported a loose (or deteriorated) discharge pipe end cap. So basically water came from my bathroom unit (level 7), leaked and damaged level 6 bathroom ceiling. Management gave 7 days to me (level 7) to seek professional help / to rectify the problem. The unit is tenanted. Now, question is... is the landlord or the tenant responsible for the repair cost? This post has been edited by jojolicia: May 5 2025, 03:43 PM |

QUOTE(jojolicia @ May 5 2025, 03:42 PM) More likely the usual problem in condos, leakage around the discharge pipe, with green mold around it, not the pipe or cap itself. Have to waterproof the whole bathroom floor or just around the John.If it is the end cap itself, it's the below unit to fix it. Of course, with notice to upper unit not to use the bathroom when they are fixing it. |

Landlord responsibility.
Probably just an old end cap which deteriorated since they are normally just plastic. just get it swapped out and do the plastering and painting. quite a minor issue. probably just a few hundred to fix as no hacking needed. had to do that previously and was only like a two hour job for the handyman (incl going out to buy the right size cap) This post has been edited by panda-man: May 6 2025, 01:43 PM |

QUOTE(vince316 @ May 6 2025, 01:31 PM) Well there has been cases where the tenant pour acid to clear the clog. UPVC pipe material & PTFE tape for plumbing work is corrosion resistance. It will not react with acid or alkaline. But generally is the owners responsibility. If you pour boiled water > 60 deg C ( which is unlikely), that will be different case. |
