hi there
welcome to MSE
Did you get the flat from a letting/ estate agent? Or directly from the landlord ( eg newspaper/ loot/ online?)
this will help us answer your question.:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0 -
hi thx
yes from a letting agent. House is refurbished n newly painted. i dun know if LL will charge me if this molud get worse n eat all the paint.0 -
I take it you are the first people to move in - given that its brand new
Newly converted flats often have problems with black mould.
how long have you lived there?:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.

sounds like they painted right over long standing mould without treating it first, if its not damp, then they should be able to treat it with some sprays that you can buy in diy stores0

There's a whole loads of landlords who think painting it all white makes it all right.0
