Just mould sprayed the bathroom. It’s a drippy mess. Like the so called exhaust fan literally drips water. What is the Building Code?
Mine has done that before too. And I have an unfixable ceiling leak due to a structural issue that means my bedroom is filling with black mould
Er, almost nothing is unfixable. They just consider it unaffordable.
They just spackle over it and next time it rains water comes right through again. One time they did go up to the roof and said it was some issue with water getting under the flashing due to the join of units.
Yup. Same place they moulded with paint idiocy had a plumbing block. Landlord turned up himself with a rug gaff taped to a 2x4 as a plunger and expected this object to be kept on the porch for future use.
Could that be the reason for some of your health problems because that's not good?
I have a disability, but I can't imagine inhaling black mould for years would have helped.
I'd recommend a portable dehumidifier. You'd be surprised how much water they extract from the air.
