British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from D.E. Pezzot Inc., Inc. No. 296176 v. Turko, 2021 BCCRT 179 (CanLII):

42. I find that the question of what repairs are necessary on the rooftop deck are outside the scope of ordinary knowledge and requires expert evidence to determine (see Bergen v. Guliker, 2015 BCCA 283).
