And don't fool yourself with small claims court. DIY is $100 filing fees and even if you win good luck collecting. Paying $500 to an agent is just adding to the costs you're going to have a pain collecting.

Yeah you missed the part where he said his cork flooring is ruined and bulging already.
And he said it leaked into the unit below.
That's the part that blows my mind. How could neither the condo board nor their insurance company care? That's effed. They must contact the building's insurance. If there is damage to the structure, which their will be if it leaked between vertical units, then you're damn right the condo's insurance will care.
Even your insurance. I just don't get it. You call and day my place flooded I need to make a claim. They refuse to even inspect? What the ####? That's so messed up.
Polay I have to say though, I don't blame Truman as much. Anything can break and if the NHW is only for a year, then it's only for a year. I'm not saying they have no fault, just not 100%.
I'm more surprised your insurance company won't help you. But let's be honest they probably don't want to fight the builder because they might lose. They can just screw you over and you aren't gonna fight them.
Builder, contractor and insurance company all get their money. You pay their premiums and end up paying for the damage. Everybody wins! Except you. You get effed in the A.
