June 12th my complex cut the water off to do repairs. I had company with 4 children in my home. We were leaving that morning to go to Clarksville and would be returning on June 13th. One of the children turn the water on in my upstairs bathroom. When the water was turn back on at 12pm, it ran for 4 hours before the neighbors discovered that water was in their apartment. My apartment had 2 inches of water in my living room and den area. My kitchen ceiling collapse and most of my appliances were ruined. I have renters insurance that will replaced what I lost, however I can't understand how a bathroom sink could cause so much damage when there is an overflow in the sink. I had a plumber come by yesterday and he agreed that a running sink would not cause that must damage. My managers at the complex say that the plumber didn't know what he was talking about.
My manager reach me in Clarksville at 4:20 on June 12th, I called my sister who has a key to my home and complete authority to oversee any work that needed to be done to save my furniture, however the management cut my power and water off due to me not being there. They left my furniture and all my appliances, including my computer and TV sitting in water, When I returned on June 13th I had to walk in water covering my feet to try and save what I could. I lost almost all my electronics due to water damage.
I had movers at my home on June 14th to remove what i could save. Management never came by to check if I needed any assistance. June 15th I had completely remove all my property. I had my own blinds in my living room and had removed them to clean before I moved then to storage, after cleaning I placed then in my back yard to dry. I left the complex for 30 minutes and when I returned maintenance had throw then in the trash, they were $60 blinds.
My insurance company has place me, my daughter and my animals in Hampton Inn while Saxony makes repairs to my apartment. They pulled the wet carpet out June 15 but left the wet carpet upstairs, which of course the smell will not go away until all wet carpet is removed. I called on June 18th and told then until all the carpet is removed the smell would not go away. I went back on the 19th and all the carpet was gone. They had dehumidifiers and fans in to dry the apartment and the airconditioner running which I would believe would cause more mositure. Then on June 22nd i found the dehumidifer was leaking and my living room had water all in it again. I called management again and they didn't have the hose connected secure. I also ask if they could start repairng my cabinets while my home was drying and was told that they had other jobs to do and I would have to wait my turn.
I have lived in this apartment since August 1994. Do you believe I should contact an attorney? I paying rent to stay in a Hotel and i know my insurance company will not let me stay here forever.
Please any advice you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
