Are you referring to the Defects Liability Period? If DLP is already over, any other claims available? I am in a water leakage situation too but I am the unit below.

you can refer to this --> Defect Liablity Period on Limitation Act.

quite a recent amendment on the Limitation Act which favors purchasers and prevent developers from avoiding liabilities.

I find the first post a bit contradictory. If the management already concluded that the water leakage on the bottom floor wasn't attributable to your unit then on what grounds they demand you to "re-do" the tilings?

These "water leakages test" are usually carried out by flooding the space directly above the complained area and if the flooding doesn't reproduced the complained leakages then it can be safely concluded that your unit has nothing to do with it.

Whether your unit is "stock" or "renovated", under the new Strata Management Act, all owners in the same development owns a "duty" to each other especially when it comes to "water leakages" issues like yours.

While i understand what these inconveniences may cause but this is something you need to live with it, "perks" of living in a high-rise/stratafied community.
