My Condo association is fixing cut floor joist that are under my unit. They would like me to have my plumbing complete and out of the way before they go and fix the joist. The whole problem with this that the joist were cut probably when the building was built so that plumbing could be possible. I have had plumbers and builders come and write to the association that the joist would need to be fixed first and then my plumber would have to figure out away to do piping around them. They came back to me with that they want me to raise my tub (possible put in a step) so that my piping would be out of the way of the joist. This has carried on for 7 months and they are now fining me until I raise my tub or hire an architect to come up with a different design. Shouldn't it be at their cost?
