    Default Household problems

    Hope some handy men and people who will know can drop me some advice might be able to stop me taking tent down and getting someone out to look at it. Not weed related but here goes. So the room with my tent in has a en suite and woke up to notice this wet patch in the bathroom. It my roof leaking ? Personally i feel like it hasnt been a leak as the little loft space next to the mark has no marks. Is it just condensation and damp ? The mark doesn't look dirty like I imagine it would be from a leak. It's also slightly damp just like wet paint. House is only three years old but they are built like shit anyway. Is this something I should be worrying about or not. I don't think its much of problem but my partner thinks it could be and just want to put her mind at ease or she will be wanting me to take the tent down and get someone to look at it l, I'm just like we will buy some moisture absorbers. bedroom with tent is quite humid

    Any advice let me know please. Out her mind at ease haha



    Same corner just has a wall in between and it is dry as a bone

    Not a pro by any mean but does it drip? Is it just moist?

    It's just slightly moist mate and I don't think it will have ever been dripping as surely the plaster board would be soggy/soft and it ain't. Well I would have thought so anyway

    Looks like a damp patch to me... I'd get it checked out!

    I was hoping no one would say that haha but I would get it checked if need be, I just don't know if it can be caused with the room been humid. Like the window in the bathroom has water droplets on it (on the inside like condensation) but the out side of the window will be a lot colder than the wall. I see what gets suggested and go from there, I'd also say the light on camera makes it look slightly worse than it is. I have done many of grows now and the only difference this time is I don't have window open all the time where as I use to do room is a lot more humid.

    Maybe storm Dennis has done a job on my roof

    That was my origional thought... or maybe it's just blown some water where it wouldn't normally get. Either way, if it is damp, it won't get better by itself

    Tru to pill it off and see how is it looking inside thats what id do..
    If its moisture from rain id suggest getting a dehumidifier they work well for that.. and u gota trace where it drips from.. roofs probably..

    I would get someone in to look or open it up yourself. Definitely something you shouldn't ignore. If it dries up and doesn't come back it could have been weather related as you mentioned and maybe not a big deal.

    Thanks all I've had window open for about hour it's dried out a lot and doesn't seem to be leaving any marks. So could just be condensation damp. I'm not home now by time I get back probably all dried up but I'll see what I can do. Better to be safe than sorry

    Before and after. After getting some fresh air in the place
