My toilet water valve broke and leaked throughout the floor.
I had a friend come over and check out the damage and he said that the floor needs to be replaced becuase it is about to fall through. The water soaked through the floor and damaged the downstairs apartments ceilings. Their ceiling is now falling down and needs to be replaced as well. Will home owners insurance cover this?
The friend never made a repair he just said that the floor needs to be replaced.
Also, its not an apartment i live in a duplex shared with my aunt. It is her toliet that ruined my ceiling in the bathroom.

    Hopefully, you had the insurance company inspect any damages before having it fixed. It should be covered but there are rules that go along with it.
