Hi, i have a question in relation to who repairs water damage in a unit.
We had a water pipe leaking inside a common wall, which penetrated into my unit. Paint bubbling & peeling off the wall, the swelling of skirting boards, and water damage timber floor boards.
Our strata manager has said that they are not responsible to fix the water damage.. either the paint, or the timber flooring, and have suggested i claim this on my contents insurance. Is this correct?.
Strata has repaired the leaking pipe, which was done from my neighbours side, but nothing has been done to my side.
I installed the the timber floor, its solid boards, secret nailed to a plywood substrate, which is in turn fixed to the concrete slab.
Your advice is appreciated.
