Hi!
I posted this in another forum, but thought I would post as a new thread too. So, my roof vent pipe leaked and caused moisture in the bathroom/closet wall - it is only about a foot big... I called in a water damage company to check the wall
to see if it was still wet after fixing the vent pipe and the water damage company said that in order to repair the wall and floor, they would have to seal off the door, use an "air scrubber" and have the wall tested for asbestos/lead??
Has anyone ever heard of this? Is this required everytime you repair plaster in an older home? They are quoting like 3 - 5 thousand dollars!!!! I personally can spray bleach and kill the tiny bit of mold that the moisture caused...
Anyone heard of this nightmare situation I am in?
Thanks!
