First we are renting, moving every three years has kept us from buying. So far it has been fine, moving from house to house sometimes on base sometimes out in town, I actually enjoy it. This house has been a whole other story....7 months we have been dealing with a leaky roof. I've lost count with amount of contractors that have come through here doing patch jobs, thinking they fixed it. It continues to leak but it was Sandy that really proved them all wrong. In 24 hours my husband collected over 2 gallons of water. It pours into our entertainment system area and we've been decorating with paint pans to catch it all.
Today's contractors seem to be determined. This is the first set of guys to ever open up the ceiling and see what is going on. What they found was mountains of moldy insulation and more mouse poop than I have ever seen! Y'all it is disgusting but they do think they found the source of the leak. I am praying they did. So I apologize if my upcoming posts seem a little weary and dreary, I'm living in a house of mold and poop. Yay.......
Oh Ko! This feels like an episode of HGTV's Holmes Inspection...so sorry to hear about your discovery, but I do hope this leaky problem (and recently found pest problem) gets fixed ONCE AND FOR ALL!
ReplyDeleteNo!!! Ugh, that is so just crappy. I hate water damage, as homeowners it is top on our list of worries. I sincerely hope they got it this time. Boo!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhen we tore out the bathroom we had mold and mouse poop too, so just know you aren't alone :) We're living in mold and poo, too. Ha! Hope they can get it all really fixed this time!
