Subject: Request for authorization to install new flooring

Dear members of the Board,

I am writing to request prior authorization from the Board of Directors to replace the current flooring (carpet) in my private unit with [specify: hardwood flooring, ceramic tiles, or marble].

Aware of the provisions outlined in the declaration of co-ownership and committed to preserving the harmony and tranquility of the building, I would like to assure you that the proposed work will comply with the following requirements:

  • Compliance with acoustic standards: The proposed flooring will be installed with a high-performance acoustic membrane to ensure soundproofing that meets or exceeds the recommended standards, including maintaining a minimum FIIC index of 55 dB for impact noise and a minimum FSTC index of 55 dB for airborne noise.

  • Appropriate materials and techniques: The selected flooring and installation method will be chosen specifically to preserve or improve the building's acoustic performance.

  • Consultation with professionals: I commit to involving qualified experts, if necessary, to ensure that the work complies with applicable construction and acoustic standards.

To facilitate the evaluation of my request, I am including the following information with this letter:

  • A detailed description of the proposed work, including materials and installation techniques.
  • Technical specifications of the proposed flooring and acoustic membrane.
  • Contact details of the contractor responsible for the work (if applicable).

I am, of course, available to provide any additional information or to discuss this request at the next Board meeting.

Thank you for your attention to my request. I look forward to your response and kindly request that you accept my best regards.
