It’s most likely that the walls etc where the problems are will be common property and a strata maintenance responsibility.
But it’s not 100% guaranteed because the strata plan can designate things differently and sometimes owners move walls, even external walls, or do other alterations that changes their status to a lot maintenance responsibility. That’s actually happened in one of my strata apartment buildings in a top floor apartment.
So while they are almost certainly common property, especially if they are original, you need to be 100% sure.
