> Hi William,
>
> I have attached some photographs taken on the 22^nd
> December 2015 on my last site visit.
>
> Whilst the bubbling is worse in your photographs, it is
> not dramatically so.
>
> The area of bubbling and water dropping onto my terrace is
> 3 times more than prior to the works being carried out
> recently by the contractor. In addition, the water has a
> dirt/rust colour which is staining everywhere below the
> overhang. The water is dropping through at a considerable
> rate 24/7 regardless of whether there is any rain. This
> has been the same problem for the last 8 years.
>
> I would suggest we wait a bit longer before getting the
> painter back to patch the effected areas.
>
> The area doesn’t need patching – we need to expose where
> the water is coming from/through ie its source.
>
> The bubbling and efflorescence appears to be mostly
> confined the slab edge which is in keeping with my theory.
>
> The rust staining on the paint bubbles is concerning as it
> indicates corrosion of reinforcement in the concrete.
>
> Again, why would we patch if rust staining is coming
> through?! Patching cannot be completed quickly enough from
> the amount of water which is forcing its way through. As
> is currently happening patching only sends the water in a
> different direction within the wall frame and subsequently
> water drops through from a new area.
>
> As discussed we had a job in Mosman awhile back with a
> similar issue. The planter box has seven layers of
> membrane installed and yet the water persisted. It turned
> out to be coming under the planter box from the terrace
> area. There may be a similar issue here, although in my
> opinion there would should also be water penetration
> visible on the soffit of the slab as the slab edge if this
> was the case.
>
> It should be noted that this is not water penetration into
> Unit 601. It is merely
>
> (merely??) water dripping off the slab edge over the
> balcony, which would be expected anyway, at least when it
> rains. Again, the water drips constantly 24/7 even when
> there is NO rain. The issue is the efflorescence and rust
> staining on the tiles and furniture.
>
> I have confirmed in previous email correspondence to the
> Strata Manager that I will take the Body Corporate once
> taken to Tribunal. Unless I receive confirmation by
> February 16 that another way of handling this matter is to
> take place, I will follow through with the Tribunal.
>
> I have been advised by the representatives of the Tribunal
> that severe penalties will be charged to the owners if the
> original order by the Tribunal is not once and for all
> carried out.
