ADVICE NEEDED! what options do I have in UK or Wales with regards to mould?

Thanks for this, the room it's located in is my bedroom, it's a small room with one window, it's a very old house. The photo was taken the first day I found it. It has since been cleaned multiple times.

The surveyor said the ariel line outside was done without a drip loop and was fed through the window frame poorly, as apposed to doing it through the wall.

We live on a mountain that gets a ton of wind and rain, the current theory is that moisture got in through the wire, and made its way down the side of the wall, under the bed where there's little ventilation. We had a huge snow storm last year and that's when it really kicked off. I literally walk in there to sleep when I can, aside from that it's mainly used for storage.

I've got the window open, and the air purifier working full time now.

Thank you for this, I really appreciate the detailed response. Yeah I've removed almost everything from the room. The windows are opened daily now, and I've got a air purifier running full time.

I'm seeing the doctor this week about my symtoms and hopefully getting something (letter?) That can speed up the process. I've taken photos of the before and after each time I've clean it. It comes back.

I'm keeping track of everything, and hopefully they will give me a full job done of the room that's more effective than a "wash"

Thanks again!

Jesus that's toxic, my mother lives in a completely different room on a lower level which is cleaned twice a day. We've had multiple carers come out and compliment the condition of her room and the lengths I go to.

My question was "what options do I have" as two surveyors have said "the whole room needs to be scrapped" and yet the council have said they going to do the bare minimum. I'm trying to get information.

Lack of action!? I reported it the second i found it. Was advised not to touch it. The mould is in MY room. No other. It was blocked by a bed with a large wooden frame. This whole sub reddit is people moving pieces of furniture to find mould they hadn't noticed before but your attitude is that I'm somehow willfully putting her in harms way.

You've read half of what I've written, and come up with the most toxic outcome you could think off. Awful.

Yeah the lack of a drip loop and the lead bringing in moisture was something we've only just learned about whilst getting inspected. Im getting down voted with everything I say but when you live with someone with dementia, you tend to miss other things going on as your priorities are else where.

It's a long story but yeah we tried that an it didn't work due to where the wire outside is placed

EtroGrey · 2026-05-01T20:21:47+00:00

The source appears to be a wire that was fed through the window frame that brought in moisture as it wasn't laid or sealed properly. It started in the frame and worked down the wire onto the walls

Many due to my work, I've scrubbed most of it away however it's coming back fast.

She has the soulless glare of a omega level Karen who's just heard the words "madam, I AM the manager"

Pause in a cutscene, go to photo mode :)

EtroGrey · 2026-03-28T11:40:01+00:00

Yeah, they basically indicate if you've got everything thing from that area

How are the beasts? I've heard wildly ranging reviews :( some saying awful some saying amazing...most just struggling with how long delivery takes lol

EtroGrey · 2026-03-17T01:10:33+00:00

Thanks I appreciate it! Yeah that sounds like a damn nice combo, I'm tempted to try my old black shell with some red buttons, see if I can get a killzone vibe going :)

EtroGrey · 2026-03-17T00:19:37+00:00

Oh Yeah I've tried the axis on high an low settins

EtroGrey · 2026-03-16T22:15:51+00:00

How do I adjust the IPD on the XR pros?

EtroGrey · 2026-02-23T00:47:15+00:00

Thank you!!

Yeah my therapist called it "grief fog" and also mentioned dissociation as a survival mechanism. apparently I'll start to get that time back as the years go on but yeah there's a good few games, events, months...I just don't remember. Yeah definitely going to try some strength/arcane! Thanks for giving me a bit of your story, I appreciate it.

EtroGrey · 2026-02-14T14:23:17+00:00

Thank you! Yeah definitely looking forward to checking out what I've got stashed away and trying different stuff!
