That's a relief that the cost won't be passed on to you.If only. I rent an apartment and the leak was not my fault so I wont be paying for anything. Though I do have renters insurance.
I was told a water tank busted a few years back and flooded all 4 floors of the apartment below it. This kind of explains why the ceiling looks like there was previous water damaged and it was repainted and sealed over. it still has that "bulge".
They should have taken your carpet up for you as it will just hold the water and go mouldy, I can understand your doubts about the maintenance company!
