They trashed my place while I slept
I have a property management company who manages a remote condo.
When I woke up this morning I had an email that basically said there was a water leak in the kitchen and the place is full of mold. The tenant called about the kitchen floor being weird (no signs of water reported).
Here is a photo of the floor, you can see it is not level.
The property manager contacted their handy-man and they set out to find the cause. The flooring is the peel and stick type so they cut some out and found some water.
There was a 2nd layer of flooring under the fist layer so they kept going. They made the call that this was all black mold and decided to keep digging. I have still not been contacted at this point.
They took out all the sub floor and are down to the last layer of the flooring. They sprayed some type of anti-mold stuff on it. I don't know if all the moisture in this photo was because the floor is soaked or if this is because they sprayed it with something.
This is quite an aggressive home renovation they have done without even consulting me. Does this type of flooring go black when wet or could this really be an entire floor of mold?
