I lived in this old dump house a few years back. There was mold all over the roof and walls of the bathroom. I just cleaned it with bleach. I was the one who had to live there, it was annoying me so I cleaned it.
Its up to you to keep the house clean not the landlord! Unless the mold is caused by water damage due to a hole in roof or pipe. The landlord is allowed to do miner repairs and cleaning. They can not do serious things that they are not qualified for like electrical work.
Don't make life harder!! Let the guy clean the mold!!! Otherwise ya just being a dick. Landlord seems ok to me. I once had a lanlord that would not fix an oven. We lived 6 months with no cooking until I found out you can have serious repairs done and just bill the landlord.
The landlord will just keep your bond and if you try and fight it he will just say you would not let him in to do repairs. which is what you are doing and I don't understand why?
Also a lanlord only has to give you 2 days notice to come in and do repairs. 2 weeks for inspections
I'm in Australia so some things might differ. But right is right and wrong is wrong no matter where you are.
You can just bill the landlord? I lived 5 years with no air conditioning. Had to flush the toilet with a bucket and had to bath in the sink. Wish I knew that 🤣
Yep! You need to prove that you made an attempt to contact them and it needs to be a serious fault. No aircon and usable toilet would fit into that category. You just get a qualified traidie and bill the landlord
Is it unhealthy living with mold all over your apartment?
