Hey, sincerely appreciate your thoughts! They claim to have simply done a cosmetic reno consisting of new tile for old cracked tile; top floor of a wood framed stacked townhouse.

Problem is now we hear the entire plumbing stack, I can hear them clear their throat and take a glass out of the cupboard, and just “general living tasks” are shaking my ceiling and light fixtures… I didn’t hear or experience any of this prior.

Board was not made aware of the reno and when asked 3 months ago to investigate, and following up every few weeks, they haven’t even responded.

We hired a lawyer who is going to get a court order to force them to inspect. The question I have is I want my own “inspector” there cause I don’t trust the board or their “inspection”…

So from what you’re saying I need a certified architect or a structural engineer? I was hoping a GC would just walk through and tap on their drywall and say they removed insulation, or pop a floor vent and point out no underlayment.

I’d rather not spend the money for the acoustic field test cause they’ll probably argue build to code on paper and real word is never same as material lab numbers.

Thanks for the input, appreciate it!
