What to do in this case, where to go and how to prevent similar situations in the future? Live in peace, not bothering anyone, and that's on you - from the ceiling came out. Usually, such a disgrace catches you by surprise. What to do in this case, where to go and how to prevent similar situations in the future? Consider the most complicated case, as it will answer almost all questions. Assume that the leakage occurred in your absence, "emergency gang" cut off the water at once and not in connection with the great extent of the damage: damaged ceilings, walls, furniture, books, paintings ... In addition, you are left without water, and a neighbor from the apartment which was flowing water, living all summer at the cottage, left for an indefinite period on a business trip abroad, went away and never came back, leaned in search of a better life ... In general, does not appear in the apartment, which by a fatal combination of circumstances is his property. Do not read further, think about what you would do in this case. Yes, this is not surprising to get lost and fall into despair. Just then I advise you not to. So, here's what should be your actions: 1. If you have a leak in the house, you need to wake up the neighbor, who gave a deluge. If it is not the end of the event immediately call emergency services. All necessary information should always be near the phone! 2. While going "emergency gang", engage in the evacuation of all valuables from the flood zone, substitute basins, cover furniture waterproof material, lay out clothes, so that water does not spread on the floor. Type in the water in various containers for later use. If the water is blocked and not flowing from the ceiling, you still do the job, since there is no guarantee that the flood will not resume anytime soon. 3. When the water is not flowing, try to calm down, because everything has already happened. Fix the facts and time - the data you might need. 4. About the neighbor above. Try to find it yourself. For this survey population, especially its neighbors, which suffered along with you (the general misfortune unites). 5. Call domouprava of VES (technology from zhilkontory) for making the act of leaking and damage. He also must provide access to the apartment to the alleged perpetrator to resolve the problem. 6. If the case is delayed, you must write a statement (the best collective) to the Chief of GEN with an indication of the facts (which you have the foresight to have recorded) and to request access ... Do not forget to mention that as a result of a leak can happen fire in the house because of the wiring. And then just this, or at the very least the next day you can witness the whole procession of specialists who will do everything. Do not forget that you must stay two copies of the acts: the damage and the cause of the accident. With these papers you can go to court or deal with it in another way. In conclusion, I want to remind the simple truth that the best treatment - is prevention of disease. Therefore, even if a small leak necessarily have to fix the problem, as devil-may-care attitude in this case may lead to the most unfortunate consequences.
