I have a summer house built around 1970 where the patio around the house was previously covered with boards. As a result, the pier foundation was converted into a crawl space about 5 years ago.
I have now opened up, i.e., removed boards along the entire gable, see picture of how it looked before. Now the pier foundation is ventilated.
Will moisture in the beams beneath the house "dry" and mold attack come to a halt? And will any smell disappear inside the house? The inspector says I should now wait and do a new moisture measurement in the fall.
