Hi,
I have an apartment in a 70s building with a cement slab structure and I'm thinking about removing a small brick internal section of wall that's freestanding on one side (half the wall that separates the kitchen and living).
1) If I can get a builder/engineer to confirm that its NOT structural/load bearing, do I need body corporate approval? Is there any logical reason they could object if I go to them for approval?
2) Has anyone had any experience in removing walls in this style of building? Could there be any unforseen issues that I might come across?
Any thoughts would be appreciated!
