Do you move any appliances?

[mwg27]

For those who don't move any appliances, I was reminded again today why I do...

Boy, that's always a sticky wicket. I have moved appliances, but I avoid it like the plague. About six years ago I tore the h&*l out of a kitchen floor moving a refrigerator. Fortunately, the buyer was gracious and planning to replace the floor anyway.

Ya gotta be prepared to repair or replace what you damage moving appliances.

Hi,

I think if you had looked under that frig you would have found a drain pan that hadn't been cleaned which was probably growing a beard. Clean the pan and clean the wall with soap and water.

OT - OF!!!

What Mike said. And, If it was caused by a leak at the icemaker box, it more than likely would have been visible on the other side of the wall.

I ALWAYS make it a point to look on any wall opposite any source of water (sink, toilet, washer box, soft water system, etc)

Usually I don't but saw this today and rolled out the fridge.

No water damage but did find dead rat remains and droppings.

It actually tested dry to the Tramex. The leak had been repaired (according to the current occupant) immediately after they moved in back in Nov. No drywall was replaced though because the complexes maintenance man said it didn't need to be. It looks like it flourished while it was nice and wet, then became the brownish dry 'mold' it is in the picture.

Of course there was nothing in the disclosure (according to the buyer, I did not see it) about a repaired leak at the water line stub...

I'm never surprised by what people will not reveal....
