Windowless bathroom without a vent

I’m looking to purchase a coop which currently has a windowless bathroom and no ventilation installed. Since this seems to be a code violation the owner is looking to take care of before we close (either via an adjustment to the selling price or having someone on their end come in to install it). Does anyone have a recommendation for a good contractor who has done vent installations before, preferrably in brownstones? I’d like to get an estimate and would prefer to take care of it through my end. This is a ground floor apartment in the rear of a brownstone. I’m not sure if other units in the bldg have a similar issue.
Sky,
That metal will be gone off the street in no time in any neighborhood.
Could you tell me more about your job with Transcend? I am thinking of hiring them because my job consists of much masonry work and also interior work. How was his reliability and his ability to stick to the finish date? How was the quality upon completion?
You can email me privately at peacenik108@aol.com if you prefer.
10:53 – put that gate on the sidewalk right now. It will be gone in the next 3 hours. Metal is in high demand, and every crazy thing I’ve ever put outside (granted I live on busy Prospect Park SW) has been gone lickety-split.
Failing that – post it for free on CraigsList, you’d be amazed what people will race each other to get for free.
Any ideas for getting rid of a metal security gate that was recently removed from a brownstone?
you could spread cat litter all over the floor of the bathroom and be sure to refresh it regularly. think of the bathroom as a beach and it will all feel normal.
How are you going to run a vent up through your neighbors apartments to the roof in order to make this comply?
Make them remove the bathroom or find a different apartment.
bathrooms must either have a window or be vented according to the building codes. But check the DOB site and do a search. Best way to find out for sure.
Yeah, it’s a violation but so what? just open the door if the smell is bad.

We may be going through the same situation and our inspector said it was a violation.
I dont want it to delay the close so would like to know were online I can find out for sure.
thx
That is not a building violation.
