Moisture Mitigation

Moisture mitigation is of prime importance when preparing concrete substrates. Cohesion between the surface on one hand and adhesion, preparation and flooring material on the other is imperative to preparing a durable, strong, and stable substrate. A mismatch here and there risks causing flooring failures. Pink’s Concrete Design team is vary of the reasons for the bulk of floor failures and understands the importance of timely addressing of these preparation factors.

Moisture Problems

One of the prime causes of failure of a concrete flooring system is moisture. There is excess moisture in concrete floor slabs that can severely impact the stability of the structure and damage floor finish. Moisture-related surface failures cost over a billion dollars annually in the US, with poor surface preparation, imperfect concrete treatment, and lack of expertise contributing to the problem. It is therefore crucial that you assign the concrete design job to professionals.

Pink’s Concrete Design contractors are professional substrate installers, skilled in applying well-formulated moisture remediation epoxy coatings that work like magic in keeping moisture off and enhancing concrete porosity, helping in reduce moisture vapor emissions. With an eye for detail, we pay close attention to moisture-related challenges and risks that can cause a floor system failure and leverage decades of experience in fixing and improving performance of the surface structure.

We anticipate that moisture can be a huge problem for an entire flooring structure. Our low maintenance flooring solution is designed to nip the problem in the bud. As experts in concrete testing, drying time, pH, and moisture suppression, we have access to cutting-edge technology in preparing the best moisture mitigation systems for all types of floor installations to avoid failure. Our high quality epoxy coating systems are the answer to all moisture-related problems.

Signs of Trouble; Need for Moisture Mitigation

Here is a list of typical symptoms of moisture problem with installed floors:

  • delamination or adhesive failure
  • blistering
  • warping
  • bubbles
  • pop-outs
  • crazing
  • warping
  • scaling
  • discoloration
  • mildew growth
  • swollen joints
  • gaps or cracks

Why Choose Us

The key to moisture mitigation lies with restricting the movement of vapor into the flooring system. With sufficient planning and preparation, Pink’s Concrete Design contractors leverage avant-garde moisture measurement tools, relative humidity testing equipment, and moisture retardation systems to install surfaces that can last a lifetime. Many homeowners in Anne Arundel County, Montgomery County, Howard County, Baltimore County, Prince George’s County and surrounding areas have benefited from our moisture mitigation expertise and are enjoying faultless flooring applications.
