Moisture Mitigation

Address Moisture.
Protect Your Next Floor.

Understand the conditions within your concrete slab and plan a compatible moisture mitigation approach before installing the next flooring system.

Moisture Mitigation Solutions

A Dry-Looking Surface Doesn’t Tell the Whole Story.

Moisture conditions beneath the surface can affect the performance of coatings, adhesives, and other flooring materials.

Concrete Slab Techs evaluates the slab and the requirements of your proposed flooring system to help determine whether mitigation is needed—and how it fits into the installation plan.

Know What You’re Building On

Resolve the Questions
Before Installation Begins.

01

New Concrete

Evaluate moisture conditions before moving forward with the planned flooring installation.

02

Existing Slabs

Assess the concrete before replacing an older floor or changing flooring systems.

03

Flooring Failures

Investigate moisture as a possible contributor to peeling coatings, loose flooring, or adhesive problems.

04

Project Requirements

Compare test findings with the requirements of the proposed flooring and mitigation products.

05

System Compatibility

Consider the substrate, mitigation treatment, and finished flooring as parts of one installation.

06

Installation Planning

Account for preparation, application, and curing requirements when developing the project schedule.

Measure First

Let the Results Guide
the Recommendation.

Our moisture evaluation may include relative humidity probe testing, anhydrous calcium chloride testing, and concrete surface pH testing, as appropriate to the project.

The findings help establish the next steps. If conditions point to an issue beyond the flooring system, we identify that concern before proceeding.
