Above ceiling fixtures / fittings are the management company's responsibility too.I would like to investigate my ceiling/pipes etc first.
Curious on this, even of the pipes were fitted by the owner above to change the sink position ? The floors being eaves rather than concrete.Above ceiling fixtures / fittings are the management company's responsibility too.
Will depend on the leasehold, but I've seen ones that call out anything beyond the plasterboard / floor coverings are property of the management company and written permission would be required to interfere with any of it.Curious on this, even of the pipes were fitted by the owner above to change the sink position ?

Flat roof aboveI presume this was in an appartment upstairs. Is it possible someone simply left a plugged in sink or bath running or a leak from a seal around a shower.
It had stopped. It happened while we were away.Why couldn't Plumber determine source of water?
Oh dear. I've already opened up the ceilingAbove ceiling fixtures / fittings are the management company's responsibility too.
Roof above me. We were away when it happened so no overheating. Thank you for your thoughts.I’m just offering an unlearned opinion here. The plumber found no problems with pipes intact. Like someone suggested the possible overflowing sink, toilet or something could be to blame.
Is it possible a water boiler overheated and burst a pipe within a wall causing water damage in your apartment?
I reckon there are insurance issues and the owner of the apartment above you is liable.
Are all electrics OK? - worth getting an electrician, I think!
Leak has stopped. It may be the roof but there was hardly any rain, and the amount of water was colossal. I have reported to the management company. But I would still like a second opinion on the plumbing and ceiling, to rule them out.If the leak is stopped it's not a leaking pipe. If an enormous amount was coming from a pipe leaking it would not repair itself and you would still have water pouring from your ceiling. It had to come from above. If you are top floor it could be rainwater from the roof, otherwise as previously stated it came from a source in the apartment above you.
