We have notice lots of humidity in our cottage for weeks, and have been noticing the bathroom floor (linoleum) starting to bend and lift. The inside of the kitchen cabinets get wet everyday. We’ve had an ongoing discussion with our landlord and identified the sound of running water coming from the shower wall. A plumber is finally coming out tomorrow morning. If water has been running under the house/through the walls for weeks, causing mold, warping floors, etc… how long of a repair could be this be (realistically). We are just curious if we should plan on moving soon… Thanks!

The plumber should be able to fix the leak in an hour or so.
As far as the rest of the damage, it’s impossible to tell. They will have to remove all the damaged wood, drywall, tile, etc.
I would prepare to move for a little while just in case. If you have to move out while repairs are made, your landlord should pick up the tab.
