The top floor of the house leaks rain. Does the property have maintenance responsibility?

It mainly depends on the use time of your house from completion and delivery to now. It is generally stipulated that the waterproof of the house has a five-year warranty period. If you can find the developer of your house for maintenance within the time limit; Over the years, there must be property maintenance.

According to the State Council No.279 Regulations on the Management of Building Technicians and the Ministry of Construction No.80 Measures for the Warranty of Building Technicians, the state has the following specific provisions on the warranty period of housing construction projects:

Generally speaking, the minimum warranty period for construction projects is:

(1) Foundation engineering, building foundation engineering and main structure engineering refer to the projects specified in the design documents.

Reasonable service life of.

(two) the roof waterproof project, the bathroom, room and external wall with waterproof requirements for 5 years.

(3) The heating and cooling system consists of two heating periods and cooling periods.

(four) the electrical pipeline, water supply and drainage pipeline, equipment installation and decoration engineering for 2 years.

The warranty period of other projects shall be agreed by the employer and the contractor. The warranty period of the construction project shall be calculated from the date when the project is completed and accepted.

As can be seen from the above provisions, the minimum warranty period in the Warranty Measures has stricter requirements than before, which reflects the state's emphasis on consumer rights and engineering quality, and also puts forward higher requirements for the construction unit.

When consumers buy commercial housing, they often receive the Housing Use and Warranty Instruction and Warranty Service Card provided by the construction unit, but it may only indicate the "minimum warranty period". The real warranty period should be based on the warranty contract signed between the developer and the construction unit. If necessary, users can consult the developers.

The "Measures for the Administration of Commercial Housing Sales" implemented by the Ministry of Construction on June 1 2006 clearly requires that the warranty period promised by the developer to the buyer shall be calculated from the date of delivery. That is to say, even when the developer sells the house, the house has been completed for many years, and the warranty period promised by the builder has expired, the developer should calculate the warranty period according to the warranty period agreed in the house sales contract between the developer and the purchaser, starting from the date when the house is delivered to the purchaser. During this warranty period, the developer should repair the house for free if there are quality problems.
