i dont think this damp accumelated over 7 months more like 15 years. plaster was falling off the walls in the loft. a friends house was left empty for 10 years and it was in way better condition than this.i know this man had applied for modernisation grant his neighbours told me. the council did eventually double glaze his home and he seemed really proud of the work. i dont think he was scared of builders upheaval and i suspect he had good genes which carried him to that age
