How can the insurer say they exclude slow leaks when I didn't know I had one until the ceiling collapsed?	dkane New member Joined: 15 Sep 2009 Posts: 1 1.26 Dollars($)

The damage to the pipe would be wear and tear and not sudden. The water damage to the ceiling would be sudden... at least initially. I've not handled many property claims but I've always paid for damage resulting from a leaking pipe. Are you sure there is not this misunderstanding about part of the claim being covered and part of it not?	tcope Forum Expert Joined: 22 Nov 2006 Posts: 5066 Location: Salt Lake City, UT 272.53 Dollars($)
