Damage not resulting from material or bodily injury. This is for example the economic damage suffered by the co-owner by the loss of the right of use of his apartment following water damage.
The main causes of water damage include flooding, sewer backups, broken pipes and leaky plumbing fixtures, poor maintenance and changing weather conditions. A construction or design defect can also be the cause of water damage: for example, a defect in the tightness of the construction, a poor design of the drainage networks, a counterspend of balconies or sidewalks. In most cases water damage affects equally common and private portions, thus it is one of the most complex loss to adjust.
