Who is responsible for the roof leakage of public buildings?

The roof of the public building leaks and needs to be solved by the property.

Who is responsible for the roof leakage depends on the cause of the leakage. If it is caused by upstairs decoration, upstairs should be responsible for maintenance and compensation for losses according to law; If it is caused by housing quality problems, the developer is responsible for maintenance and compensation for losses. If it causes obstruction or loss to the neighboring party, it shall stop the infringement, remove the obstruction and compensate for the loss. If there is no waterproof requirement for the bedroom and living room floor, the developer is really not responsible for the leakage caused by the upstairs decoration and the damage to the property of the owner's house. It is really difficult to completely avoid the roof leakage caused by similar decoration upstairs.

Treatment of roof leakage:

1, find out the cause of water leakage: in the leaking place, carefully observe the upstairs and roof, find the damaged, cracked and loose place, and determine the cause of water leakage;

2. Make a repair plan: Make a repair plan according to the cause of water leakage and the roof condition. If it is a minor injury, it can be repaired by itself. If it is a large area of water leakage, you need to find a professional company to repair it;

3. Replace the damaged materials: if there is a big gap between roof tiles or tiles, replace the damaged materials;

4. Strengthen roof maintenance: the roof should be cleaned at ordinary times, and holes, bends or decayed places should be inspected and repaired in time;

5. Establish waterproof layer: Brush waterproof layer on the roof to prevent water leakage.

To sum up, roof leakage belongs to the employer's project warranty scope; Beyond the warranty period, the owner of the house shall be responsible for it; Housing quality problems that do not belong to the upstairs residents can be asked to be responsible for them.
