Moisture Testing and Inspecting for Concrete Floors to Receive Coatings

The importance of moisture testing of concrete floors cannot be stressed enough. Moisture is a leading cause of coatings failures on concrete floors. There are many ways moisture can affect floor coatings on concrete. Moisture testing alone is not sufficient enough at detecting all of the potential problems. Inspecting a building prior to performing any tests will provide a much clearer picture of the potential problems moisture in both liquid and vapor form can pose.

The importance of moisture testing of concrete floors cannot be stressed enough. Moisture is a leading cause of coatings failures on concrete floors. There are many ways moisture can affect floor coatings on concrete. Moisture testing alone is not sufficient enough at detecting all of the potential problems. Inspecting a building prior to performing any tests will provide a much clearer picture of the potential problems moisture in both liquid and vapor form can pose. A moisture survey is a simple tool that will help to identify potential problems not detectable by testing alone. Moisture testing has been described as a snapshot in time. Moisture is a moving target and there is no guarantee that the results achieved one day will be the same the next day. Knowing how moisture can affect a coated floor is essential for testing. Predicting the movement of moisture is difficult but not impossible.
