    unit troubles
    Flatchatter

      Hi all

      am in disagreement with the strata company that manages my mother’s unit over whose responsibility it is to replace massive balcony window opening. All up about 6 to 7 metres long and floor-to-ceiling.  Am I wrong ?

      The issue :

      45 year old building

      Both balcony doors need rollers/tracks replaced/repaired in order to run smoothly -very rough & noisy and very heavy to open/close.  Window tradesman advised that parts are no longer available, so not possible to repair. Need to be replaced.

      Also, as the building has settled there is now a gap of a couple of cms between the building wall and the  fixed floor-to-ceiling window. 

      Sliding glass door which is part of this floor-to-ceiling window cannot be lifted off the track ie no ‘give’. We think due to the building having settled.

      I think the replacement/repair is the strata’s responsibility. Am I wrong or right ?

      TIA
