The Property Management Regulations stipulate that water supply, power supply, gas supply, heating, communication, cable television and other units shall be responsible for the maintenance and conservation of relevant pipelines, facilities and equipment within the property management area according to law. According to Article 45 of the Property Management Regulations, water supply, power supply, gas supply, heating, communication, cable TV and other units within the property management area shall charge relevant fees to the end users.

Who should be responsible for the leakage from upstairs to downstairs?

There are two reasons for water leakage, one is that the waterproof treatment is unqualified when the building is renovated upstairs, and the other is that the waterproof quality of the renovated house delivered by the developer is problematic. When the rough house upstairs is decorated by itself, it should first inform the neighbors upstairs and ask them to deal with it as soon as possible through friendly negotiation. If the neighbors don't cooperate, they can contact the property management company, which will be responsible for communicating with the owners upstairs. If there is water leakage in the renovated house delivered by the developer, it should inform the upstairs and contact the property management company immediately, and the property will come forward to let the developer carry out maintenance according to the warranty agreement. If the warranty period exceeds, the property owner shall be ordered to repair it himself. If the upstairs owners refuse to cooperate with the property, they should take photos, videos and other evidence, which can be reflected to the owners' committee and community police. If it still cannot be solved, he can bring a civil lawsuit to the court according to the relevant provisions of the Civil Code.

If you have other problems about water meters that you don't know how to solve, you can ask a lawyer to help you.
