Default WAY worse than a tank leak!

So I got a call from my strata company this morning to advise me of a major water incident, they needed me to open up my tenant apartment ASAP.

I know tank leaks or burst tanks can cause lots of damage but try having a roofer fall through the roof of a three story building and in the process takes out a main fire sprinkler feed line! It is estimated that the damaged pipe ran for over 40 minutes pumping out somewhere around 40,000 gallons of water from the third floor all the way down to the underground parking..

Three stories of damage, estimated 2 million in damage.
15 units uninhabitable including the one I own.

Water is an amazingly destructive force!!
