What should I do if the water leaks from the upstairs to the downstairs and refuses to repair it?

If the upstairs leaks to the downstairs and the upstairs refuses to be repaired, the following measures can be taken: collecting evidence, consulting with the upstairs residents, asking for help from the property or related institutions, applying for legal aid, and suing the court.

1. Collect evidence: First of all, protect the scene and collect evidence such as photos, audio and video, which may play a key role in subsequent negotiations and rights protection.

2. Consultation with the upstairs residents: try to communicate with the upstairs residents, explain the water leakage and its possible impact, and try to reach a mutually acceptable solution. If both parties can reach an agreement, they can sign a written agreement to carry out maintenance.

3. Ask for help from the property or relevant institutions: If consultation with the upstairs residents fails, you can ask for help from the property or relevant institutions. They may assist in mediation or provide some professional advice and help.

4. Apply for legal aid: If the above methods can't solve the problem, you can consider applying for legal aid. Lawyers can help you understand your rights and obligations, provide legal advice and help you in litigation.

5. Court of Appeal: If the above methods are ineffective, you can consider bringing a lawsuit to the court. The court will hear the case and make a fair judgment.
