Completely agree with Whales comments. Sometimes you have to suck it up and move on with life. You are very lucky your Owners Corp took steps to fix this problem, in many other schemes this wouldn’t be the case where owners would have to pursue their Owners Corp for an order through the tribunal to get the work done.
There are no provisions in the current Strata laws that allow an owner to recover such compensation. Your claim would most probably lie outside of the scope of the Strata Act. Hence you would have to seek independent legal advice (yes spend thousands on a solicitor and make them rich) to recover a measly sum of money you may feel your owed.
