i need help...im going to end up in court with my management company who i rent my house through. please tell me..."IF" i did have renters insurance would they cover a $1000 TV that was damaged from the plumbers that they (the management co.) hired to come into my home and tear out a bathtub to replace it with a shower? the tv was blown from them jackhammering which caused the electric to keep going out in my house. the plumbers had to several times reset the breaker. so i called my management company and told them, all the sudden my tv wont turn on which was directly on the other side of the wall where they were working. they said they would have a great electrician come out to determine wether or not it was the plumbers fault. YES, he said it was. now the mgmt. do. has told us they will not do anything about it and thats why i should have renters insurance. im not understanding that if they send someone out to my house that damages my property how renters insurance would cover that. isnt renters insurance for like a major disaster...ie: fire, flood, earthquake and your property being damaged because of that? why would they cover the plumbers that did the damage? not to mention im in contract with a 3 bedroom 2 bath house and the plumbers also screwed the shower up so we've been without our master bathroom for 3 weeks. im refusing to pay rent this month. ive paid $1425 on time every month for over a year and they have the nerve to say i still owe $1425 with the loss of one TV and no 2nd bathroom. am i crazy or does this seem unfair to you also? does anyone know if i did have renters insurance would they cover the tv? since i wont pay my rent i know this is going to end up in court so im going to need to be sure its on them to pay for my tv, right?
