Question
I live in a building where our family and another family live on the upper floor(s). They had a lot of water on their roof. Someone cleared a blockage and all the water came down. A few hours later, water began dripping from our ceiling. Who is obligated to pay for the plumber and for the repairs?
Answer
Shalom u'vracha
Payment for sealing and leaks from the roof is divided equally among all the tenants of the building.
