What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? KS
we live in apartment in overland park,ks. Yesterday when we returned to apartment after work.. we saw water was pouring from ceiling from bed room, bath room and hall ways..It is heavy..not just drops.. we called leasing office.. they started initiation to fix it..so emergency guys started working... it took couple of hours to suck the water.. then they started drying using couple of fans.. underneath carpet..also..
I though of not staying..there until, apartment is completely dried..walls as well as carpet. Emergency guy told me.. it takes at least 3 more days to get everything dried..
Since I can not leave there until fixed.. Can I ask leasing office to re-imburse my hotel stay expenses for these days ?? When I asked about it yesterday.. I was told they are not responsible.. because they are working and their insurance is not covered..
what should I do ?.. just suffer and pay all the expenses on my own and leasing office is responsible to show me temporary accomodation or re-imburse temporary living ?
In fact my wife is pregnant.. I thought it is not good idea to stay with wet blowing air..
Please advice me. Thanks for your response and time.
