Q:What are the rights of a tenant when the upstairs neighbour has undertaken massive renovations, leading to leakage, fungal growth and paint peeling in the tenants flat below? The owner of the affected flat has simply indicated that the tenant may carry out necessary repairs/repainting and bill the owner, but who is responsible and accountable for the agony and inconvenience encountered by the tenant? Can this grievance be addressed in the court of law?
