Further to the dehumidifier chat. My dad is more or less ignoring the situation ("it'll be fine, you're being excessive") so I went up today again to help remove more sodden possessions. Sister had pulled up the carpet and underlay at the weekend. More rain than not isn't helping the situation.
Two rather pleasant customer service interactions though - hiring a big dehumidifier from Travis Perkins they put a discount on that made it less than half what I was expecting, then took one look at my dad's car and decided to bring it round on a flat bed, for free. Also, I ordered a domestic dehumidifier direct from Meaco, website wasn't very clear whether they actually had stock so I emailed on Sunday and someone replied straight away. They then changed the delivery address before sending it out today.
