Who is responsible for damage when a concealed inside water pipe bursts?

Why did the pipe burst? If the tenant caused it, he is responsible for the damage and the repair of the pipe. If it just happened or the landlord could have prevented it, the landlord is responsible for the pipe and structural damage. I do not believe he is responsible for personal items lost or damaged. You would have to prove that he did something to cause the pipe to burst and knew it was likely to happen.


Does landlords liability insurance cover damage to your property when building floods due to landlord negligence?

You must review the actual policy, but in most cases the landlords liability insurance only covers their property and NOT your personal property. You should probably get your own policy through travelers insurance for liability, and persaonal property. Make sure it includes flood/water damage as this would likely be a separate rider. Landlord Negligence would be a lawsuit to recover your property value. Seek advice from an attorney.
