Hi Matt,

Knowing that no one wants to hear this and looking into future expenses, I believe it Is time to start discussing the next several projects and then we can anticipate the levy.

Thanks Darren,
 This is going to keep happening I think with every balcony it seems the construction of the building is substandard.   Sarkis how does the budget look are we in Special Levy zone again yet.

Good morning EC,

As approved at the AGM, we engaged Distinction Waterproofing & Remedial Solutions (DWRS) to rectify leaking form the terrace of apartment 103 into their bedroom area. The plan was to remove the 1st row of tiles along the threshold of the bedroom door, remove the tile bed and membrane, detail the substrate & hop and install new membrane. Next remove the remaining terrace tiles in the walkway leading from the bedroom door to the floor drain, grind the tile bed and replace the tiles with new. The cost to undertake this work was quoted for $6,500.00 + GST. Please see the attached original works plan for reference.

DWRS started work this morning and removed terrace tiles outside the bedroom door and next to the terrace floor drain. It was found that there was inadequate tile bed to get the required fall from the bedroom door to the floor drain. To rectify, the tile bed in the area will need to be removed, the existing insulation foam would need to be replaced with a thinner version, the tile bed replaced with the correct fall to the floor drain and new tiles installed. Additional TBC cost would be incurred as a result of these findings.

Water testing of the whole Apt 103 terrace revealed that water on the western section of the area drained towards the dining room door instead of towards the floor drains. Please see the attached water testing plan for reference. Also, the parapet wall between the terrace and the eastern external building wall was significant damage where the metal corner angles have rusted and broken away the render allowing water to enter. Please see the attached photo for reference. The angles need to be ground out, replaced with new plastic or stainless steel, installation of waterproof patching over the top of the parapet wall and re-rendering.

DWRS recommend consideration should be given to repairing the parapet wall and replacing the whole terrace floor instead of the original patch repair. It will only be a matter of time before the pooling water on the western side of the terrace penetrates the dining room area and potentially into Apt G05 directly below. It would be better to use the cost of the patch repair towards the full balcony replacement as the patch repair works will need to be removed again when the western side requires repair in the future.

Apt 103 Full Terrace Floor & Parapet Wall Repairs
DWRS - $25,000.00 + GST
BIRS – 26,598.00 + GST

Please note – The terrace has a number of large free standing planter boxes which have been installed by the Lot owner. These will need to be removed at the Lot owners expense prior to the works commencing.

If you have any questions please let me know. Thanks

Kind regards,

Darren Vignes
