Responsibilities of the Owner's & the Association
In a Condominium Association, the property is divided into common elements, limited common elements and the units themselves. How a given area is categorized generally determines who is responsible to repair and replace items. You should refer to the by-laws for details, however, below are some general responsibilities.
- The Association is responsible for the maintenance, repair and replacement of all the common elements & limited common elements, including portions of the units which contribute to the support of the building, outside walls of the building, stairwells, structural slabs, roofs, interior boundary walls of units and load-bearing columns; and all conduit, ducts, plumbing, wiring and other facilities for the furnishing of the utility services.
- Unit OWNERS ARE RESPONSIBLE for appliances and plumbing fixtures and the interior wall(s), ceiling and all floor surfaces, including any improvements made within the unit itself and floors, wall(s), or floor coverings, built-in fixtures, and personal items within a unit. A CONDOMINIUM UNIT OWNER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND REPLACEMENTS (AT HIS/HER EXPENSE) OF ANY AND ALL PORTIONS OF HIS/HER UNITS.
