Felix – In addition to Jimmy T’s wise words … All renovation works, which fall outside the definitions of “cosmetic works” and “minor renovations”, will require a special resolution pursuant to Section 108 (Changes to Common Property By-law) and/or a new by-law Section 142 (Common Property Rights By-law).
Bathroom renovations, if they involve waterproofing, will automatically require a special resolution and a new by-law.
Whether the kitchen renovation requires a special resolution or a new by-law depends on the scope of works. If only the cabinetry is being replaced then it will not require a a special resolution and a new by-law (i.e. only an ordinary resolution will be required), however if waterproofing is applied then this will trigger the need for a special resolution and a by-law.
