Utility repair responsiility
by: John Arendsen

If it's a park infrastructure issue the park owner/manager has the responsibility. The rule of thumb is the park's responsibility stops at the pedistal. The pedistal is where everything hooks up to your home.

From there it's your responsibility. So if you have a plumbing link that's connected to your home it's your responsibility to repair it. Now, having said that, many underground sewer, water & electrical mains run undert the homes from pedistal to pedistal.

So if there's a leak under your home that's not directly connected to your home then it's an infrastructure issue and the park's responsibility.
