Does anyone know how bad it is to soak plaster a couple of times?
Sort of. Our boiler leaked and ultimately the closest bit of the ceiling plasterboard bowed and became unsafe. If the leak got caught quickly it might be fine, but you probably won't know until it drys out properly.
If that section is still perfectly flat once dried you should be OK.
Are they paying or is it insurance? Because if it's their cash you can position it as; "I'm happy to wait to see if it's OK, but are you cool to cover it if later issues transpire"? Whereas if its insurance just get it redone now to be on the safe side.
