    Thanks Jimmy,

    I have fired off and email to the EC and the Strata Agent suggesting that we engage a plumber with specialist knowledge to do further investigations so it can be determined whether the matter is, as you suggest is probable, a Strata issue or whether it is not.

    Other sources have suggested that water hammer, if not fixed, can cause damage to the pipes affected over the long term … assuming this is true I would have thought that, at the very least, it would have been appropriate for our Strata Agent to at least write to the other two Unit owners informing them they were responsible (as he claims) for any repairs.

    It’s strange as the Agent in question has generally been very helpful and knowledgeable in the past yet, this time, has simply fobbed me off with no real help at all.

    Thanks again.

    Phil
