We got home tonight and there was some water leaking on our main floor ceiling right under where our washing machine is on the top floor.
wall were the pipes are as the wall is wet toward the bottom in the laundry room but dry higher up where the pipes attach to the hoses. There was also water on the floor under the machine. I turned off the cold water (hot is always off) and saw that there was some buildup of water near the valves as well.
I'm planning on calling the person builders representative first thing tomorrow but the house is over 1 year old so I'm weary of them not taking responsibility. First off, who is the best people to deal with and assess the situation? Would the builder liable even after 1 year for this type of problem? Any other recommendations on what we should do? Since it looks like the problem could get worse and I'm even weary of the structural integrity I hope we can get this figured out soon. BTW, this is a newly constructed 1 year old townhome.
Thanks for any advice you can offer.
