Protecting the concrete slab and building interior from moisture sources below starts from the ground up. Below slab water vapor remediation after-the-fact is a complicated and costly fix. The small, upfront savings when choosing a minimal protection moisture barrier can be appealing, but the result often turns into a long-term problem.
Proper planning and design will avert these potential headaches and expenses. Choosing the correct below slab water vapor protection is imperative to your finished floor and overall health and safety. Proper selection and installation of a high-quality under-slab moisture barrier will result in a successful finished flooring system and provide you with long-term security and comfort.
