Well the problem is little complicated...We moved in the apartment one year back. When we took on the apartment it was not painted, the shower area was discolored, and this we brought to the notice of the agency immediately .and they agreed to that. Within one month of moving into the apartment the walls of the shower area started getting black and we told the agency about it and they said it was coz of lack of proper ventilation ( though we knew it was a structural issue) . At that time we cleaned the walls ..till now twice and due to the uncertainties about our stay in Switzerland we could not change the apartment also. Now, recently again we asked him to get the bathroom painted and he sent a specialist to check it. Yesterday we got a mail from him ..stating that the walls mildew is coz of lack of ventilation ( despite the fact that we ventilate the house 2-3 times regularly) and it needs special paint and would cost 1400 chf.
please suggest what should we do. Went to the mieterverband but the person said its complicated and need to go to legal way or move out of the apartment.
Please , guide as the agency is saying that we have to pay the cost even if we move out.
