i come from black mold central PNW and KILZ brand paint works great. it has a chemical that keeps the mold from growing through the walls. also, a dehumidifier will not only suck the moisture out of the walls, but it will circulate the air and make it smell better. KILZ for the win.
Cool.but I need something to kill the mold on surface first though right? Before I can start painting?

Scrub the walls with a bleach and Borax solution, then wipe them down with warm/hot clean H2O to get rid of granular Borax residue that remains.. Then paint away.
They make Kilz now in a water-based product too, which I believe is fast-drying. So the alkyd-based, day-long, free high from huffing fumes (and causing who-knows-what else to your body/brain) is no longer mandatory.

Micro-ban. I'm not sure if its commercially available, but it's what the mold crews use.

I get frustrated at times, too, Hawk. Calm down, this will all happen an inch at a time, if it is to happen at all.
The rain will pass.
Are there any contractor outlets you can appeal to, walk in with validation or proof of your circumstances, something official in writing re. the fire, and ask, beg, what ever, for some torch-down roofing?
From my experience with trailer roofs, you can either cover with 1/2" CDX and use 'bitchothane" (spelling?) which is torch-down roofing, or you can use cold tar.
A temporary fix involves tarping with large poly tarp(s), and securing at the edges of the roof.
In the case of torch down roofing, you need to create a rain-drop eave, which can be done by hanging 2"x4"s around the edge of the plywood where it hangs over, BEFORE you put down the torch-down roofing, and (before hanging your eave material, cut a 1" deep cut down the center of the 1-1/2" edge of the wood that will hang down, so when rain rolls off your roof, it goes down the side of the Painted wood, reaches the cut in the edge of the 2"x4" at the bottom, and drops to the ground due to the cut.
Laying torch-down roofing involves larger propane torches (we refer to them as weed-burners.. not THAT kind of weed), so you'd need to have a good fire extinguisher on-hand. Preferably more than 1.
I know that right now, none of this sounds doable, and things are more than tight, but like I said, ask, beg, promise to work it off, what ever, at local building materials outlets. and maybe some one will see the tax write-off potential in this, and honor your needs.
Just remember, final solutions are final, and leave out the possibility of circumstances changing tomorrow. And they may. Tomorrow, next week, or....

My family are professional roofers.my dad and buddy wanted to get drunk and high, thought the rain might calm down but no.we covered what we could would Tyvek.i knew that would not work..I'm dealing with 60 year old drunk lunitics.i can't afford a real company.hell Ive Benn doing thix 15 years but it's too far gone for my dad.i don't have the tools or money.i get threatened with prison and death everyday I'm done.if I could find some fentyl right now I'd do it.im not looking for sympathy or donation's or anything.you guys gave me great advice but I simply don't have the means to do it.oh but my dad can talk to his Younger hoar on the phone all night and complain he can't work on my roof cause he's too tired even though it's leaking like crazy.plus he drinks and smokes weed all day.i want to end it NOW! I can't take it anymore.i want to die but I'm a pussy.
And where the fuck are you Ganja4mama? Don't even care enough to enter this thread!? It's your fucking house!don't even care about her son

Glad you're a pussy for now, Hawk, even if you're not. What ever it takes to get the moment of rage out, and find some calm enough seas to get past the immediate frustration.
Flat out, sometimes life sucks. Plain and simple. Every now and then I joke (a running joke with dissatisfaction with life), saying, "I want my money back!!!" Had a Doc fail to realize it was a lampooning statement of sarcasm or satire, and asked me, "What money??"
The rain -will- end. No 40 days and nights or arc building necessary. hang in there, and seek out a materials outlet with your documents that might see value in helping you, by way of a donation/tax write-off.
Is the old farm house you referenced as 'haunted' an option, or is that a legal risk too?
And by all means, if you're feeling like it's truly futile, try to abstain from alcohol. For many, depressants on top of depression, even circumstantial or situational depression, doesn't always help.
Sorry for the experiences you've had with disappointment where love from family is concerned. We don't get to choose family. We get assigned. Sometimes when we get old enough, we can reassign ourselves to better surrogate roots, or find what we're looking for in a mate or in ourselves..
Take care.

Shit,
I understand that you wanted to quit smoking so you could get shit done. But I also know that sometimes people need their medicine, because they can't think properly without it.
Sometimes I make rash decisions when my mind's not right.
Do us a favor, man.
Give it some time. Don't do anything you can't undo.

Ok.im sorry guys.im not sure where to begin.my dad has been procrastinating my roof for sick mental reasons.he wants to have some control over my mom.and I cause he knows we can't afford anyone else to go fix the roof.hss lunatic.threatens to kill me all the time.this roof got so bad it's leaking really bad.he blames my mom for not giving him money for materials.hell I wouldn't give it to him either! Just spend it on beer or his new whore girlfriends.unless he stops getting maniacal I can't fix this roof.for this roof it's over.the house is done.one thing I didn't mention is that I'm on probation so I can't smoke.he attacked me,I defended myself and I went to jail.for domestic he got like 7 domestic,, armed robbery and tonz of other charges but me, no felony or anything they wanna arrest me! I'm 5'6 155.my dad is 6 foot 185 and is a real OG.WTF? What a shitty county.i guess that's Justice
I appreciate the advice.i really do.but in suprussing what's going on here for legal reasons.i don't have it as bad some people but I'll be damn if I can't claim I'm in the the top 1percent.ill say it if I have too.thought I was gonna get something done today.too many leaks and only my dad to try and sealith tyvek.hes too busy with his new whore to care about my house.hes trying to juggle 3 ugly bitches.unless my mom can pull setting else I'm going to fuck these people up big time.now I haven't pushed the issue cause supposedly this girl's was basically criluxified and shot in the head is the story I was told.i don't believe her.but I can't call someone out like that.anyway I'm ghosting e eryone.im sure whats gonna happen is I'm gonna call this whore put and my dad and I will fight.im studip.tje onlybl thingbwrong with herbl l can tell is she believes the BS .y dad says.i guess for a 45 year old she's not too bad but when your homeless and heatless this girl is the last person I wanna see.when my house is livable I don't care less.im sorry I'm being a sick but it's harder than I thought.

I understand fat-finger syndrome, 'hawk. Despite my long-winded posts, I type on a regular keyboard, and still do a shitload of correcting typos.
You and your father have a history of violence between you, I know. So this may not be the best time for you to try and resolve anything with him in person, especially tonight, based on your level of irritation and disappointment..
Get some sleep in a dry spot if you're able, try to find a different view in the morning, and with some amount of luck, you can locate some ray of sunshine in the muck of it all.
I don't know what all is going on in your world with legal issues, but I do know that no matter how disappointed or disgusted we are with someone, we make little progress by simply unloading our anger on them... or on ourselves.
I need to get back to sleep, as I have chores to do in the middle of the night, and my sometimes-wayward and wandering older son is supposed to stop by. And I can assure you that we both have histories with each other that we wish were different than they were, even if they haven't had the violence or antagonism that your and your dad's has had
If you can, 'hawk, get some decent sleep, some how, some where, and stay warm with blankets, sleeping bag, a used mattress, whatever you have to put atop yourself to stay warm.

Thank you moose.as always you have the voice of reason.and I appreciate it.my PTSD was really acting up and my dad was acting violent.things are so bad I'm ashamed I let it get this bad.we put tyvek on the roof to try to stop the leaking.didnt work.right now my dad is working on our friends house who has insurance so he will be paid.i didn't have insurance so I got fucked.my dad broke my temporal lone eye socket so I've got some kind of brain damage that prevents me from thinking or doing some things.ill post pics but it's gruesome if people think I'm lying.the stress here is unreal.everybody Is either dying,dead or flipping out.my dad cares about these damn cats more than me.normally I like animals but my dad doesn't understand desciplin.he didn't give a shit what I did growing up.i could do any drug I wanted and
D he didn't care.luckily I don't really have a drug problem and I don't smoke tobacco.somehow I got lucky with that one.anyway I'm sorry for venting my life story.had to get it out.i don't really have friends in real life so you guys are the best thing that I got going for me.you guys are awesome and there's a reason I've been here since 2006 at the least.dont let my join date fool you.
