We have an old block of 4. Both of the owners on the top floor want to extend their living space into the roof space, ie add another level enclosed level and balcony.
They claim that what is required for this is a by-law which grants them exclusive use of the roof space.
Can anyone tell me if what they are saying is legal under the strata act?
I thought that the roof is a common area. If they build into it then it’s not a common area anymore, but becomes part of their living space. Is that right?
I’d be very grateful of any advice
