Common apartment leak problems
Leaks in blocks often involve bathrooms, service shafts, terraces, roof areas, common pipework, drains or units above. The visible damage may be in a different property from the source.
- Neighbour below affected
- Service shaft moisture
- Bathroom or drain leaks
- Common-area damp
Why access matters
The best inspection compares the damaged area with the suspected source area. Access to wet rooms, timing information and the building layout all improve the quality of findings.
- Access to affected property
- Access to suspected source
- Administrator contact if needed
- Condition before repair
Report support
Written findings can help administrators and owners agree on the next step. The wording should be practical: what was observed, what was tested and what repair should be considered first.
- Neighbour communication
- Landlord/tenant support
- Administrator notes
- Contractor guidance
