Hi
I have a basement rec room from '64. Considering fixing it up to make it a work-from-home office and social area for the kids. Not for sleeping. It will have some gaming set, TV, and some furniture there.
We haven't seen moisture on the walls/floor or noticed any damp smells.
Should we leave it as is or do we need to address it in some way?
We removed a panel in the wall to see what’s underneath. The house hasn't been drained since it was built, we believe.
We assume the panel contributes to keeping the room somewhat warm. The question is if we'll do ourselves a disservice by tearing it out.
What would you do?
