I would think so...is this a condo, or apt? What type of insurance do you have? renters? condo? homeowners? What has the owner of the building said?

I'd be more interested to know about this leak and how it could have been caused. I guess you can collect it from the building insurance if it has been caused due to natural disturbances. I don't know whether you may claim it on the same, if it was irresponsibly caused by any of the inmates. Lets see what the others have to say in this regard.

I agree. The cause of the leak maybe a factor. It probably will be.
