Thanks JimmyT for the speedy response. I get what you are saying and make good points.
I understand if I ask a lawyer a question, I get a lawyer response.
If I ask a strata manager a question I get a strata manager response.
I’m just trying to collect all the facts so I can make the right decision.
btw. I was quoting the actual by-law of the building.
To add some more info:
I contacted two tilers and they both said they haven’t ever added acoustic underlay in the kitchen before – other than in the case where they tiled into the dining/living room and needed the level to be the same.
The entrance, is already tiled but it doesn’t have any underlay. so if I put in new tiles in only the kitchen with underlay, there would be a small ramp from the entrance tiles to the kitchen tiles (entrance 12mm, kitchen 17-20mm). Aesthetic wise I prefer to keep the same level.
The most popular underlay seemed to be Regupol 4515 4.5mm but it has a Ln,w 61
In my mind, the kitchen isn’t a place where people would spend a lot of time, so the underlay doesn’t seem to add much value …
