Hi, I have a similar situation with an apartment I just bought. There is a leak going through to the apartment below and the EC have gotten a quote to dig out a section of my bathroom to be able to get to the leak and seal it.

 

I don't have a problem with that but they are asking me to pay half the amount of the cost of the job ($5000 out of $10000). I am wanting to find out what my rights are in this matter. If the problem is on common property, isn't the entire cost carried by the EC? Should I speak to a strata lawyer in the first instance or is there someone more appropriate? Thanks for any suggestions. Geoff B
