This has probably been done to death on here, but I'm after some advice.
Im currently renting a flat within an old building which has mold issues within the bathroom and front bedroom (both by the front door) I've used mold and mildew spray which does get rid of it, but it keeps returning. I open the bedroom windows each morning for minimum of 30 minutes and have a dehumidifier in there. I also ensure the bathroom window is opened and door closed after each shower.
I contacted letting agency 6 weeks ago and they came out to inspect the property, took pictures and said they would speak to landlord. 4 weeks go by and I've had no correspondence from anyone so I contact landlord directly and she said she was not aware of the problem until I contacted her and she would arrange for someone to come out. This was over 2 weeks ago and I've had no response again.
I have explained to both letting agency and LL that we have a baby currently sleeping in the bedroom with us and the mold is on the wall beside her bed.
What would the next best step for me to take? Our rental agreement is up at end of Feb, but we're not in a good financial position to move out so I would like to avoid this if possible, but I find it infuriating that they have chosen to ignore me regarding the issue.
