What if an interior water pipe bursts or leaks?
Good question. Plumbing near the toilet or sink, such as the flexible hoses and faucets are the unit owner’s responsibility. The water heater is the unit owner’s responsibility. But from inside the wall on back, which is much of the plumbing in a unit, it may be considered a common element and the unit owner should contact the property manager, ROLAR. If there is a emergency outside of business hours, the property manager’s answering service can page someone who can return your call. If warranted a nighttime or weekend dispatch can be made. In all cases the official position is stated in the Bylaws and the amendments to it. It is the unit owner’s responsibility to read and understand the bylaws.
