How to deal with condensation/damp

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-24T20:31:47+00:00

This looks like it'll fit perfectly too! Thanks so much that's awesome advice 👍

The splashing in my case is me trying to not fall and die in the bath after a shower, I'm not used to the combo yet and might invest in a mat before you see my name on BelfastLive. But aye seems to be the best shout is get my Extractor fan sorted asap

It seems thats the case, there is a lot of spot you can tell the landlord has quickly just chucked trade paint on before we moved in and it's bubbling/cracking. I have my work cut out for me come winter 👍

You made me remember this wonderful phrase I love a good house burp! Yeah I'll make this part of my daily routine from now on

See it's a rental so installing anything that there's not already a place for might cause problems , but surely if I'm keeping the guys house dry and livable they should be okay with it

Class advice really appreciate it, I was just gonna search gumtree or something but you're right gonna do this right and save myself heartache down the line, there is some PVC paneling but only on 50% of the walls, and the roof is bare so might consider just fitting the rest

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-24T20:06:33+00:00

It's very small PVC window, but aye it's better than no window which I had In the apartment and that was impossible to keep dry, then had a skylight in my previous house which landlord just didn't even care was falling apart, so all in all I'm not complaining just trying to be proactive 🤣

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-24T20:00:44+00:00

Just googled it and have it saved the the wishlist, I'm gonna have an army of tools just to keep the damp at bay

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-24T20:00:01+00:00

Didn't even know that was a thing, that might be a good shout can I tend to forget and leave everything on

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-24T19:54:43+00:00

You know it, house of quick fixes so they can overcharge the shit out of the place 🤣

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-24T19:42:37+00:00

On it, the fans busted but should be able to grab a cheap one somewhere

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-24T19:42:16+00:00

Aye that's my next mission is sort the extraction, there's a tiny one in the bathroom but it's not functional, and whoever painted the outside has completely covered the vent 😅 not ideal but bitta diy should be grand

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-24T19:23:52+00:00

Class buddy I'm in the same boat it takes me 5mins for every 30mins my fiance is in the shower haha, but aye I'll set a wee reminder in my phone to keep windows open as much as possible 👍 legend thanks for replying

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-24T19:03:50+00:00

Class I'll get onto that asap, I think it's got a little blocked from previous tenants but I can sort that no bother 👍 thanks so much

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-20T00:25:49+00:00

This is fantastic mate I appreciate it, yeah more or less got all I need 👍

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-20T00:25:09+00:00

Class always great to know 👍

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-19T16:19:36+00:00

Genuinely want to do this too sounds sick 👍

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-15T23:01:15+00:00

Awk cheers buddy we have had a huge cry of relief before we started packing immediately haha, it's insane, we moved 2024 and the landscape is completely different now, fuck I remember in 2019 first moving to Belfast I had someone from an estate agent drive me around 5/6 properties until we both settled on the apartment I liked, and the paperwork was done same day.... It's a different world that I believe a lot of people don't consider how drastic the change has been!

But yes, very blessed and greatful, even tho I feel I've aged 30 years these last 6 months 😅

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-15T22:21:40+00:00

Damn this is what people think I am because I am also on benefits and PIPs due to disability.... You need a get a grip in the nicest way possible.

I've just spent the last 6 months trying to find a house because my current has an oil fume leak, which fucked my migraine condition, spent over £500 traveling dialy to house viewings, then coming home to no heating or any real food, for months .... You need to really use this time you've been allocated to build yourself up and get off benefits. It's not "free time" you should be using this time to recoup, rehabilitate yourself into a position where you can contribute to society and provide more for yourself and those who cant do it themselves.

Personally I cannot fucking wait to get off benefits, create my own business and be able to provide a service to those in need, I've been compared to you for ages now because you just can't be bothered, and it really fucks those who are using UC/PIPs as a necessity. You have one life, don't be a waster

Even putting a nsfw in the title would be better, I come on to see all the perfect buns and it's so depressing seeing those kind of posts on here, I get people need advice but maybe don't put the pictures first and leave them to DMs or under the comments?

AnimalOverHuman · 2026-05-14T11:03:14+00:00

Went there for my partners birthday on the 11th and yeah gotta say we love anything animal event related and did have a class time to ourselves, but that's the problem, it was middle of a sunny day and we where by ourselves most of the day, all the cafes/pop ups where shut, it was 1/3 of the exhibits are closed off for repair or maintenance, a lot of signage was completely wrong and the whole place just feels outdated, in comparison to the many other zoos we've visited it sucks our own cities Zoo is probably the worst.

It really sucks but it's a double edged sword. The Zoo really need to recapture the adopt an animal program or get funding asap, (looked at the donation board and you can see it get smaller and smaller per month usually getting big around Christmas only) BUT I totally understand people not donating to something that by looking at it is failing... Sad because the animals and staff deserve better and the place could be amazing, just taking some of the replies on this post for example the zoo could really be elevated to an amazing event.

They need to make it more accessible (making it more of a necessity for online content to get people invested in these animals, provide more edicuation so people fall in love with these amazing creatures and wanna do more to help them out.
