What is the name of your state? AZ I own a condo in Phoenx AZ. My toilet (clean water) overflowed for about 4 minutes and leaked into the downstairs neighbors bathroom. I spoke with the landlord (tenants said the damage was minimal after I offered to clean the carpet). The landlord said that the drywall, carpet and electrical (lights, fan etc.) were damaged. I suggested a water extraction company to come out and look at the damage and said I would pay for it. After he looked at the damage he came upstairs and told me that the damage was not in the drywall or the ceiling but the carpet wet.
I then spoke to the tenant and asked if they wanted to at least have me pay to clean the carpet. The tenant told me it was all dry and the it was not a big deal. the next morning the landlord called and said she felt like the extraction guy was just a flooring guy and did not know what he was talking about.
What are my rights I do not mind paying for damage if it is really there but the water damage was minimal and I feel like the landlord wants me to pay for renovations not caused by my toilet overflow.
any advice would be greatly appreciated and if anyone knows who I could call for advice in Phoenix that would be great as well.
Thanks in Advance
