And the leak goes on!
May 5th 2011 15:34
Another frustrating day. Today we woke up to water all over the floor and paint on the wall beginning to chip off. Once again complaints were made to the management office. By this time I was furious with the inability or unwillingness of everyone to do anything. About 2PM I received a call from the management office saying the owner would be here at 4. I personally turned the water off to the unit while the renter was at work. I mopped the floor and tried to clean up the mess. At 5:30 the owner showed up along with the building supervisor and the management committee chairperson. The entire situation was explained to the owner. He refused to believe it, so the water was turned back on and within 10 minutes the leak began anew. He still wouldn't accept that it was coming from his unit. It was agreed upon that he would return at 6 on Friday with his own plumber to meet with the plumber who first suggested that the origin of the leak was the unit next door. I think this guy needs to be hit over the head with a ton of bricks before he can see what is in plain sight. I neglected to mention that all of these conversations were being held in Hokkien, the local Chinese dialect, of which I know nothing.
