Best Answer

Read your governing documents to determine who owns the pipes.

They may be common area assets, or limited common area assets -- dedicated to owners or an owner, but fewer than all owners -- or they may be owned by the unit owner.

As well, contact your master insurance policy carrier, since the requirement to repair and the requirement to pay for the repair may be different.

Is leaking pipes inside the wall covered in condo insurance?

Typically, the coverage for leaking pipes inside a condo's walls can be a bit complicated due to the unique nature of condo ownership. Insurance coverage in condos is generally split into two parts: condo association insurance (also known as "master policy") and individual condo owner's insurance (HO-6 policy). The condo association's policy often covers parts of the building structure, which could include pipes inside the walls. However, it can also depend on the specifics of your condo association's master policy and whether they have an "All In" or a "Bare Walls-In" coverage. An individual condo owner's insurance might cover the damage to personal property and any improvements made to the unit, like upgraded kitchen appliances. Essentially, whether or not a leaky pipe inside the wall is covered depends on where the pipe is located (common area vs. within your individual unit), who is responsible for its maintenance (as outlined in your condo by-laws), and the details of both insurance policies. At Daisy, we've learned that understanding your condo documents and insurance policies is fundamental to knowing what is and isn't covered. It's always advisable to consult with your insurance provider or a lawyer to fully understand your coverage.

Will insurance cover a leak in the roof in a condominium?

It depends upon the circumstances in which the leak came about, and also upon your individual insurance policy. Insurance policies are contracts, and these contracts state very specifically what is covered and what is not covered. Read the "named perils" section to see what is specifically covered. Read the "exclusions" section to see what is not covered. Please note that under most policies you are obligated to mitigate your damages or coverage may be denied. For instance, if the leak in your roof is causing water damage inside the condominium, you are obligated to do something about it to prevent further damage inside the condo. If after reading your policy you are still uncertain about coverage, you should contact your insurance agent.
