Roof leaking issue Reported problem several times, maintenance came out and took notes ?? on each occasion. On each occasion we’re back to square root 1. Promise of escalation. Mean while any rain ??? and if I happen to leave anything in counter area it gets damaged. Dishes has to be rewashed , rolls of paper towel tossed out ( Lots of work). Now mind you that’s just on the occasion I happen to begin noticing the problem all other times I been trying to figure out what was being done wrong on... my behalf (nothing)
eating the losses until I happen to be home and witness 1st hand and started recording the damage. You can see the line in the ceiling and swelling begin on the counter top a what not due to water ?? damage. Maintenance made notes of this on each occasion. To my understanding the apartments beneath me is experiencing same like issues im on the 3rd level so im getting hit the worst I imagine
My notes on the crisis
