    Our unit complex of 28 is most likely proceeding with replacements of our rotting wooden windows with new aluminium windows.

    Our strata scheme was established in 1971, which I believe means that because it is prior to 1974, the strata laws suggest that balcony doors and windows are the owner’s responsibility.

    Only about 10 units have balconies, including myself.

    Should the cost of the ‘common property’ window replacement be split due to ‘unit entitlement’ or split in regards to % of square metres required.

    My property has a large balcony window and doors and a small ‘common property’ bedroom window and I feel that using the ‘unit entitlement’ method does not represent a fair method as I would be subsidising smaller units with many common property windows.

    Anyone experienced similar issues or know of any solutions to this?

    Many thanks,

    James
