Am a Canadian,had lived in UK a couple of years back working for Canadian consulate, and I can agree the UK are far behind in their houses they really sucks, they should learn from the homes system we have in Canada,Canada have super excellent homes for human habitat.

Your English is very poor for a Canadian..but yes, lots of old houses in UK

That landlady should be named & shamed.I wouldn't let a dog live in that house!!

Shame on the landlord for renting a house out to the lady and her daughter, she needs to put new windows in

The UK is full of very old houses. That’s part of the charm, but it also sucks if it’s not renovated.

None of these homes were ever charming

If they are out of the house most of the time then the heating isn't going on regularly and the damp will get worse.

The first woman tried her best to keep the mold at bay, God bless her. She seems tired and defeated.

When I was there in the early 90's, almost every house I saw (particularly the ones built after 1960) had too much damp.

Wow the second house 😮

The crazy thing is, its a private rented property. She didn't mention anything about the landlord doing anything to resolve the problem.

This is discusting they really dont care!

Why is there so much mold problems in the UK and also are they using? We have a product here called Drid. It’s basically sits in a container and observes moisture around the container. Turns it into water that she poured out.

It’s a damp place perhaps. A house needs to heated, decluttered and windows to get airflow

Landlords are accountable. Now there's housing association's. They are too large to oversee the houses. They are greedy.

As a Gen Z Canadian Landlord this is horrific. It’s our responsibility to provide people with safe housing and in return they make us rich. We both need peace of mind.

I think there is legislation now for Landlords to abide by,& must maintain their properties for their tenants esp safety aspects.

I get nauseous just looking at the mouldy pics, never mind living in that flat Good Grief what a slum landlord getting rich from other people's suffering he should be jailed

let the landlady put the house on the market...she'll never get a buyer in that state, and in the meantime she can't move you out until it's sold.... however that landlady should be arrested for the state she's forced her tenant to live in...

Foreign people come to Canada with their handicapped because we have the best accomodations for them

Canada has a housing crisis going on.

I baught an ex council house it was in ruins.I replaced everything from the bathroom,kitchen to front door.The whole house was re plastered and re pointed guttering also.It was upsetting as i thought about the council tenant that had to live like that before i boughtthe property.Council houses in england are very old many do need alot of work done,unfortunately there is so many that need alot of work and not enough money to do so.I just suggest those who can to work and save as much as possible to fix the problems or get up and out of there.My friend works for the council and has told me letting criteria has changed because of the lack of funding.Aslong as the tenant has running water and heat going into the property it is deemed liveable.I do feel very sorry for those living in such propertys i wish them all the best❤

There are housing associations they could apply to get out of those places…. Report it …. It’s now illegal since a two year old died a few years ago from the damp in a house… landlords must legally tackle this issue….

Unfortunately even housing association properties and council homes are riddled with mold. I was living in a home owned by a housing association which became covered in mold. Partly due to a defect in how it was built and the result of a burst water pipe resulting in the partial collapse of the ceiling. It wasn't until I gave birth to my daughter (6 months after the pipe burst) that I got moved to a council home. Soon after moving into the council home I noticed water coming up through the floor in various rooms. The council kept saying it was condensation causing it but I told them iI thought it was rising damp. I bought some floor sealant and the puddles of water I used to have coming up through my floor stopped. The flat above me experienced 2 floods, I don't have a window in my bathroom and the extractor fans don't work. The council did nothing except blame condensation. I have had to resort to stripping off all of the wallpaper and painting the walls with mold preventer mixed in at my own expense. The only time these issues are dealt with is when a tenant moves out or fixes the problems themselves. If the properties were built properly and maintained in the first place by the landlords then more people would be able to stay in these homes and yet the landlords keep putting the rent up even when their properties are not fit to live in due to the constant mantra of "We don't have the money available to fix things."

Can’t you also use like a special paint that could seal it in

I don’t think it works that way, don’t you think she has tried that. The other lady can’t even open the window. Her landlord is disgusting

No. Use AZIJN because bleach does not destroy mold/fungus!

Bleach keeps the mold down. You need UV light and circulating air to get rid of the spores.

You think things are bad in the UK. Try living in New Zealand !!!! Things are twice as bad there and it’s considered the norm.

Wow they are goi g to get sick. What a pos the landlord is

I am sorry for these Families. It's awful! Especially with 2 small Children. People who moan Don't realise how Lucky they are!
