Bathroom humidity

[AleksandraKaczynska]

I agree also - this is not a single flooding... but a bigger issue and all pipes should be chequed and not only in the apartment directly above you. Sometimes a leak can be a couple of floors above even - especially in older buildings.Or it can be even from the roof itself.
And in this case all palster and tiles should be removed - in rooms beside the bathroom also and everything should be dried out and dezynfected with putting special bars - heating - into the wall itself - and this you need someone to do it. I'm not sure how it's done in the U.S. and how it's covered by landlord or insurance.
But so far - ventilate as much as you can and get as much humidity out as you can.
And wash the walls - till you can get someone to do it properly or any other way you choose to solve this problem. It can really be a hazard to your health since you don't know whats growing up in the walls.
Sorry you have this problem.

Thank you for all the replies. I am actually in France and am not sure yet what the laws are here. So far the landlord has been quite agreeable and given my current financial situation i cannot get into the fight and cannot move out.

For now my dd wears a mask when taking a bath (i know it is not a solution but it is better than nothing)and i am looking into getting professional help to clean this.
