      The latest problem here in our block of 36 units in Manly Vale NSW, is a couple of resident owners are treating their garages as ‘mens shed’ workshops. This is a problem because of the noise; power tools, hammering, even chatting. It sometimes goes into the evening and some things they do seem like low key commercial projects.

      One’s a Russian and one’s a Pole, not that there’s anything wrong with that, but it enables them to play ‘the race card’ when there are complaints. (This from a Greek Aussi.)

      Our building is three levels, 18 units up one side and 18 up the other with 18 lock-up garages opening into the central area. (Not all units have garages.) They are meant as garages, not as workshops. Because of the design and architecture the noise is amplified. The work and incessant chattering (some in foreign language) is upsetting many other occupants and, rightly or wrongly, these blokes have a certain scary aura about them; most occupants are too frightened to complain.

      Any suggestions to stop this please?
