Glasgow letting agency 'will carry out repairs in a week' for mouldy family home after protest

A Glasgow letting agency has allegedly agreed to carry out repairs to a family home covered in mould within a week after housing activists staged a protest yesterday.

Pierette Tchialu and her four kids aged 20, 17, 14, and 10 live in a three-bedroom home, which is managed by Dennistoun-based letting agency 1-2 Let, which has been plagued with high levels of mould and dampness in areas including the bathroom and bedrooms since 2020.

Housing action union Living Rent staged a protest outside the letting agency's offices yesterday, demanding action on behalf of the family, as the home's ceilings have become caked in black mould and parts of the walls and ceiling have flaked away, as well as the bathroom floor beginning to cave in.
