The house was repaired because of water leakage. What should I do after the warranty period?

[Case]: The director of an industry committee reported that the roof of 30 houses in the residential area leaked in a large area during the warranty period (5 years) due to construction technical quality problems. Before the establishment of the industry Committee, the developer had repaired 22 of them, and the remaining 8 buildings were not repaired in time. Now the developer thinks that the warranty period has passed and the industry committee has been established. The remaining eight houses should be repaired with maintenance funds, and the industry committee is responsible for the maintenance. However, after the owners' committee reports to the owners' meeting, the owners' meeting thinks that the developer should continue to maintain and bear the expenses. How to solve this problem? [Resolution]: Considering that the delivery of residential houses in this case occurred on 1997, the relevant warranty period should be determined according to the relevant regulations at that time. 1993 Ministry of construction order No.29 "measures for quality management of construction projects" stipulates that the warranty period of roof waterproofing works is 3 years; At that time, the warranty period of new commercial housing in Shanghai was not less than 2 years from the date of delivery. If there is an agreement in the sales contract, such agreement shall prevail. It is suggested that the owner prove that there was water seepage on the roof during the three-year warranty period, and ask the developer to repair it, but the problem has not been completely solved. It is best to entrust a house inspection agency to conduct special appraisal. If water leaks due to structural quality problems, it is not limited by the 3-year warranty period. If the owner can't prove that the roof leakage is caused by the quality of the developer's roof waterproof project, and it doesn't happen during the warranty period, but is caused by the normal wear and tear of the roof waterproof project, the developer can not bear the maintenance responsibility. At this time, the maintenance fund shall be used for house repair only after two-thirds of the owners of eight houses agree in accordance with the regulations of the State Council on property management. If most owners of the eight buildings do not agree to use the maintenance fund, the industry committee or the owners located on the sixth floor can bring a lawsuit to the court, requiring the owners of the eight buildings to repair the leaking roofs, and the losing owners will bear the legal costs and other economic losses. In addition, the water leakage of the house is an urgent repair project, and the owner can ask the industry Committee or the property management enterprise to repair it first, and then determine the maintenance cost bearer. If the owner or the owners' committee requires the developer to repair or claim compensation, we should also pay attention to the limitation of action. [Tip]: 1. There are many roof leaks, most of which are caused by technical and quality problems in building construction. In 2000, the State Council promulgated the Regulations on Quality Management of Construction Projects, which extended the warranty period of roofing waterproof projects to five years. According to the State Council No.248 "Regulations on the Management of Urban Real Estate Development", real estate development enterprises should undertake the warranty responsibility of commercial housing in accordance with the provisions of the residential quality guarantee. The warranty period shall also comply with the provisions of the "Commodity House Quality Guarantee". Therefore, if the owners or owners' committee find water seepage, water leakage or other quality problems in the roof, they should negotiate with the developers in time to avoid dragging the problems arising from the warranty period out of the warranty period and causing greater losses to themselves. 2. Owners should rely on, support and care about the industry committee, and set up the industry committee as soon as possible. It is more advantageous and economical for industry committees to handle the rights and interests of most owners. 3. Believe in professionalism and make full use of social intermediary. For example, in this case, the division of specific responsibilities, the owner had better entrust a housing inspection agency to identify the causes of roof seepage before determining, and put forward a maintenance plan. Treatment result: After our company participated in the coordination, the industry committee and the developer finally reached an agreement through consultation, and both parties bear half of the maintenance cost, thus avoiding a wide range of litigation disputes.
