What should I do if the store leaks and causes business losses?

For the leakage of house decoration, first determine whether the house is under warranty. If it is within the warranty period, the maintenance standard can refer to the corresponding construction acceptance standard. Under normal circumstances, inhibition tests will be done. If there is no problem, the developer will be responsible for the maintenance during the warranty period. If the warranty period has expired, you can check whether the property has a maintenance fund. The compensation standard mainly lies in the corresponding losses caused by water leakage. First of all, we should distinguish who is responsible for the water leakage, and the responsible person should compensate for the losses caused by the water leakage: if the water leakage caused by the house decoration affects the downstairs, the landlord should be responsible for the losses caused. Due to the aging of water pipes and loose fittings, the landlord did not replace them in time, and the tenant just moved in and didn't know. The landlord is responsible for the loss caused by water leakage downstairs, but the tenant is not responsible. If the tenant finds that the water pipe is aging and the landlord fails to replace it in time, resulting in the loss of the downstairs, it should be regarded as the main responsibility of the landlord and the secondary responsibility of the tenant. If the tenant forgets to turn off the water pipe, the tenant shall bear all the responsibilities for the leakage loss downstairs.

Solutions for water leakage in shopping malls:

1, keep the evidence. If the house leaks and it rains all night, first take photos for evidence.

2. Determine the person responsible for the water leakage. The water leakage of the house is related to the building structure, waterproof treatment and drainage system. There is a specialization in the industry. Therefore, it is necessary to find professionals to check the water leakage, determine the cause of the water leakage, and determine the person responsible for the water leakage. After determining the responsible person, you can claim compensation from the property, developer or neighbor.

3. Negotiating rights protection Take the evidence to find the responsible person to negotiate, and you can ask the other party to restore the original state, or you can ask the other party to compensate for the maintenance fee.

4. Litigation rights protection Although we took the evidence to consult with the responsible person, the other party may shirk the responsibility or disagree with the amount of compensation, and the dispute over water leakage in the house still cannot be solved. If negotiation fails, we can still solve it through litigation.
