It depends on how the damage came to be. You don't really provide enough details to answer your question and you would best benefit from consulting a local real estate attorney experienced with condo issues to look at your situation and advise you as to the best course of action.

It sounds like the damage came from outside your Unit. If so, you probably have a good claim against the Association (who will have their insurance pay for it and go after the responsible party, if any, later).
