Hi Guys,
We have a couple of flats and one tenant contacted us just after New Year because a black damp(?) patch had appeared in one bedroom. She sent photos and it looked nasty. We sent a roofer round as we assumed it was a gutter/roof problem. The roofer went round and said he would send a quote for the work needed.............usual tradesmen.........we are still waiting LOL!
Now the tenant says she has cleaned the area with mould/mildew cleaner and the area is dry and stainfree. There has been some heavy rain and snow since.
I am a girlie but I would have though it the damp was coming from outside there would be some residual staining or damage?
I am wondering if it is condensation from inside, drying clothes etc (although tenant denies this)
