WHO PAYS FOR
BALCONY DAMAGE?
QUESTION: Who is responsible for paying for the deck when the
owner tiled it without approval? The HOA or the owner?
ANSWER: The owner. However, the owner could have some defenses
ANSWER: The owner. However, the owner could have some defenses
depending on the situation. To minimize any defenses (or avoid the
problem altogether), boards should adopt written rules and regulations
regarding the tiling of balconies and then strictly enforce those restrictions.
Associations should either (i) ban tile altogether or (ii) implement tough
installation guidelines pursuant to a consultant's specs written specifically
making the owner (and future owners) responsible for all maintenance and
damage that may arise from the installation of the tile.
