[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, this isn't going to get fixed until you run an HVAC vent through there. You need more ventilation with cooler air, which holds less moisture than warmer air.[/quote]

yup. I know this is expensive but this is the only fix that I see actually working.

Your contractor screwed you, unfortunately! You do NOT want to risk mold in your house (its dangerous, can cause health problems, is very expensive to remove. need there!) so fixing moisture problems, to me, is a "need" not a "want" in regards to your home. Moisture will inevitably lead to mold. Good luck![/quote]

Yes our contractor screwed up, and screwed us. There's a lot of drama surrounding the entire remodel with this issue just being yet another one.  We certainly don't want a mold issue so we're determined to fix it. [/quote]

When we moved into our house there was no HVAC vent in one of the bathrooms. It turns out the HVAC guy had installed it but the drywall guys had covered it up. It was literally a 20 minute fix. Something to check. [/quote]

Unfortunately for sure one does not exist. When we bought the house and started renovating we saw there wasn't one so when the walls were still open we requested one to be added, he didn't do it.  As I posted earlier our contractor story is a dramatic one, we got screwed over big time. That water is under the bridge and down the river now and we're not interested in reopening old wounds with this guy.  Just need the issue fixed.  A few of you have offered some great suggestions, but I think the one we're going to have to pursue is opening the walls again and adding a vent. [/quote]
