Who should I repair the water meter for water leakage?

If the valve in front of the water meter leaks, you should find the water company to repair it. If there is water leakage behind the water meter, the property is responsible for maintenance.

Legal analysis: the property should be responsible for the leakage of the pipeline in front of the water meter, and the residents should be responsible for the leakage of the pipeline behind the water meter. Therefore, the water supply company's practice does not violate the provisions of relevant laws, but users should not bear the cost of water leakage. According to relevant laws and regulations, the maintenance fund of the building and its ancillary facilities belongs to the owner. With the consent of the owner, it can be used for the maintenance of elevators, water tanks and other parts. The collection and use of maintenance funds shall be announced.

Legal basis: Article 942 of the Civil Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that the property service provider shall, in accordance with the agreement and the nature of the use of the property, properly repair, maintain, clean, afforest and manage some owners in the property service area, maintain the basic order of the property service area, and take reasonable measures to protect the personal and property safety of the owners.
