What is the statute of limitations on disclosure for a real estate purchase?

My wife and I bought our house 2.5 years ago. In spring we had to have part of bathroom floor replaced due to a previous leak. We contacted the seller and she remembered the repair of toilet but would not pay for repairs of floor. During that repair the plumber found crawl space had 30″ of water in it and I had to pump it out. No apparent damage but Ifound a sump already in place on the far end of house and neighbors confirmed it being pumped out each spring. Now have water damage to floor in master bathroom from previous repair. None of this was not disclosed.
