We took off the wall paper to reveal the damp

The electrics are shocking :-)

We could hear the termites eating this

Greater detail. We had to replace this.

You can see that a little ventilation is helping the damp

New architrave for the built in wardrobe and the cupboard above it.

We had to do a little replastering

The damp is still receding... slowly

We brought some child labour :-)

This is the front bedroom, above the door.

The front bedroom door seen from the lounge.

Greater detail shows the wood has been eaten!

You can see the wall has damage as well.

It is quite old and was probably there for more than twenty years

The termites ate these doors, they were too bad to keep, Mum put up a curtain.

It looks okay when finished, bur the termites could come back

The damp was caused by the leak in the upstair's terrace. You can also see an exposed cable leading to the central pendant light. The lights were wall lights originally, but my Father wanted a central light.
