An elderly relative either didn't realize or ignored the fact that the supply line to her toilet was dripping...maybe for over a year. Anyway, the tile floor cracked, the grout wore away, and I ended up ripping the tile up as well as replacing the flexi-pipe.
We laid down one of those DIY "wall-to-wall" bathroom carpets for the winter, but I'd really like to cover the plywood with linoleum now it's summer and the adhesive won't stink up the house. My question:
1) What if any chemical solvent can remove black mold without permanently sinking into the subflooring (this bathroom is a "powder room" off a master bedroom, where the elderly relative sleeps); and 2) Will linoleum placed over old tile adhesive be too lumpy? I know the answer to this second question sounds obvious, but I'm wondering if I can buy some adhesive thick enough to even out the ancient "stripes" from the groat/adhesive float.
Thanks for posts or email--or helpful links.
