In early 2012 our strata manager recommended we get a building inspection due to the increase in complaints he noticed regarding water leakage and water penetration in various units of the strata.
Shortly after that the strata management company assigned us a new strata manager. Working with him was very unsatisfactory and in spite of repeated requests to complete the work he did not get the building inspection approved and organised until January 2013.
Now we have an estimate/quote of $500,000 to have our roof and all balconies repaired due to deteriorated membranes. And checking the original roofing contractor’s documents for the building we can see that the 10 year warranty for roofing membrane expired in late 2012.
Our Executive Committee feel our strata management company is complicit, if not completely responsible, for the delays and high cost of repairs. I’d like to know if we have any grounds to stand on in requesting our strata management company to cover or contribute to our repair costs. And I’d also like to know the experiences of those who’ve been in similar conflict with their strata management companies.
