I've noticed (I wish I hadn't) that the floorboards on the upper floor

something that just happens over the years?
There's no smell of damp and no evidence of moisture, though one wall
does get a little condensation on it.
Do people live with it or should I get it sorted. Am concerned down
the line that a buyer or surveyor might think it's damp.
It can be caused by running a dehumidifier in the house.
You end up with significantly different relative humidity
in different rooms. Have you done this?

I haven't. I think the boards were pretty cupped when I moved in 3
years ago. I've probably just become more aware of it.
I certainly won't be getting a dehumidifier now, though!
