Tricky
21.03.2018
One morning me and my flatmate noticed that there was water dripping from the ceiling. At night it did rain a lot and the was a crack in the wall. We took some pans and pots from the kitchen and placed it underneath. We looked for other cracks and did found another one. Then we called our landlord. She told us to go upstairs to the flat above us, even when they only spoke spanish. Nevertheless, we did not think about it and went upstairs. It was actually easier than I tought because the guy immediately knew why we were coming. His whole flat was under water due to the rain at night and the water started passing the thick walls towards our flat. He told us that he already called someone and after some misunderstandings due to the language we went downstairs. We had to stay the whole day because we could not really evaluate how fast the water would flow. After some hours we heard the technican in the floor and we asked him, in spanish by the way, if he could have a look on our crack as well. He said it will stop in a few hours and applied something to it.
Today the crack is still there, but as it rained, it never did drip into our flat again.
