    I believe there is a level of damp that is acceptable for garages/storerooms/basements which are not considered habitable.  But cascading water is not “damp”.  And even if you were in a townhouse/villa with your own garage attached, should water come up from under the concrete slab, that is the OC responsibility.  So would definitely be so in a unit block where both above and below the slab is CP.

    Concur with Whale in sending letter to OC stating that you hold them responsible.  Send copy to SM.  Leave a paper trail.
