Hi, I am looking for some advice. I own a first floor aparmtnet. This time last year my tenant told me as he moved out that there was water coming out under the bath. I got a plumber in to have a look and he discovered the waste from the bath had never been properly connected and so had been leaking for six years. I claimed on the block insurance and took up bathroom floor, put in new timbers, insulation, retiled etc. I got an assessor to work on my behalf. On friday I got a call from my current tenants to say there was a problem with the washing machine in the kitchen. I got a plumber in who discovered the machine was leaking onto the plug and causing it to short. The whole kitchen floor is destroyed as well as the living room floor (it is all one big area) Am i entitled to claim again, will this cause problems with the management company etc, will the insurance company evern agree to cover me?? I got a quote of 5K not including the kitchen which also needs to be replaced as it has started to rot at the bootom due to the water. Any replies appreciated.
