The internal walls are not common property, thus they are the responsibility of the owner. The floor is common property, so the owner should have organised repair through the Owners corporation, giving them the opportunity to obtain competitive quotes and employ suitably qualified and insured tradespeople. Also the owner is not entitled to upgrade the bathroom using a higher grade of tiling than originally installed. In my opinion, I’d be telling the owner concerned that if he didn’t like the settlement offered he was welcome to try his chances at legal action.
