I recently moved into a new apartment in Suffolk county and the apartment to the top left of me had a huge leak. From my understanding this leak was there for sometime....Now my apartment smells like mildew. I spoke to the maintenance crew he mentioned they fixed upstairs and poured bleach but my apartment still smells. I assume my walls are still wet and have mold/mildew growing because it smells. In the morning its fine but once the sun starts heating up the ground the smell really kicks in. I had the maintenance guy in here at noon and he said he doesn't know what mildew smells like.
In the end I want to know what kind of right I have to get this resolved? I am afraid I am breathing in mold spores.
