If I am reading your note correctly it also sounds like this person is “repairing” or fixing  common property and then submitting a bill for reimbursement.  If this is the case and the work has not been pre- authorised by the Committee or Strata Manager then the Owners Corp  is not obliged to reimburse.  We had a couple of owners try that at our property a few years ago – engaged handymen for repairs they wanted  to common property then sent the bills for $800 and $400 respectively  to the EC.  We rejected both invoices so they were out of pocket. Interestingly one shoddy repair by the handyman did not stand the test of time and the OC had to fix it about 2 years later. Lucky we did not reimburse that owner as we would have paid twice.

The owners involved have never carried out any more repair work themselves! Perhaps you should try that approach.

Sorry if I have misinterpreted the issue
