Hi guys,
Recently bought a home, been here around 1 week and noticed an earthy smell inside the cupboard under the stairs.
This is where the electrics is located. My knowledge isn't great with this however the texture under the laid down flooring feels like cement, parts of it feel slightly damp (barely). I lifted the matt up which is currently covering it and took pictures which I will provide with this post.
I'm just wondering if anyone has any ideas on where to start or can advise on best things to do? Anyone else experienced something like this or similar?
The cupboard isn't near any moist appliances as far as I'm aware however circulation is probably bad under there. I've left the cupboard door open to help air it out and will place a dehumidifier there to absorb any excess moisture from the air.
Thanks in advance.
