In the event of a leak:
- Unit owners should first determine if the leak is originating from their unit and their pipes alone by shutting off their water valve, if the water stops it is most likely coming from your unit. Contact a plumber directly.
- If the leak appears to be coming from an above or below unit, contact the homeowners to see if it is a unit-to-unit problem prior to reaching out to management. Be advised water runs downhill and could possibly cause further damage to units below if the leak is on the 2nd or 3rd floors. In some cases, claims must be made on the association policy.
- The owner of the unit where the leak originated is responsible for payment of the master association’s deductible. If the loss does not reach the deductible, no claim will be filed and the homeowner is responsible for payment of any necessary repairs.
- If management has to come out to determine the source of the leak in your unit, homeowners are subject up to a $200 charge if it is determined to not be the main water source of the leak.
* Please Note: Per the Maryland Condominium Act, Homeowners are responsible for up to the first $10,000.00 of the master insurance deductible for a claim that started from their unit. It is in your best interest to make sure you check your Homeowner’s Policy to make sure you have the correct coverage.
