Just looking for some perspective.
My rented home has rising damp. The plaster will all need to be taken off, right back to the brick work, and remedial works done. This is going to entail weeks of awful noise, dust and disruption.
I work from home (self employed) and due to the nature of the work I'll not be able to do it when there's lots of dust / disruption, and it's not laptop based so I can't just go to the library / coffee shop every day (I use special equipment, and need access to things like running water). Like all self employed people, if I don't work I don't get paid, and this could prevent me from earning for weeks. I'm also not sure where I'm meant to sleep - it looks like all the plaster in my bedroom will be coming off.
AIBU to expect the landlord to put me up in a short term Airbnb let of equivalent standard to the home I rent while the works are going on? There's no one I can stay with in the local area.
