Moisture
Are high levels of moisture in your concrete slab causing issues with your project's flooring?
Concrete slabs are the most common flooring base used in a range of buildings, including residential and commercial. Like the majority of building materials, concrete constantly interacts with the conditions around it – temperature, humidity and other factors all have an impact on the moisture levels in concrete. Excessive moisture from floor slabs after installation can cause floor covering system failures such as:
>Debonding of coatings<
>High pH attack on floor finishes<
>Microbial growth<
>Release of adhesive<
>Flooring expansion<
If high moisture emission is discovered during moisture testing, then proper
precautions should be taken to prevent flooring system failures.
