Hi all,
In about 5 weeks or so I will commence a 4 week reno on a 2 bed 2 bath unit Ive just purchased.
My question is, I am planning to tile the living area floors with 600 porcelien tiles. I have done this before in 2 other top floor units and achieved magnificent results asthetically speaking. I have not had problems with the body corp previously (although they weren't informed, oops I forgot) and have had no noise complaints from tennants downstairs. Admittedly one of those tennants is stone deaf so that probably helped a bit
Anyway I have heard that the BC can make you replace the new floor coverings with something that is acoustically similar to the old floor coverings. Is this the case and are there rules/guidelines regarding acoustic matters in strata units.
I want to get this sorted so as not to upset anyone and make sure that I cover my #*@!.
Thanks
