Have you ever walked into a basement and had a rotten, pungent smell instantly overcome your senses? Unless some old food was left behind, it is possible that concrete moisture was the cause.
Moisture in basements, even when a leak or standing water is not visible, can cause a handful of problems. For one, when that water evaporates, houses are left feeling extra humid. Additionally, condensation created by concrete moisture buildup can lead to wood rot, insect attacks, and harmful mold.
It is better to plan ahead with a prevention mindset than having to react when moisture finally does pop up though. That’s where you and your expertise come into the equation.
As a flooring contractor, you have to take a lot of things into consideration when doing a new installation; none more important than making sure concrete moisture levels are not too high. If you install a new coating and trap moisture underneath, over time problems will start to arise. That’s why V-8 offers the Rev M.V.P. (moisture vapor protection) solution.
Our Rev M.V.P. flooring is a fast-drying, 100% solids epoxy product designed to reduce and protect against any moisture vapor. While normally you might have to wait 28 days after pouring concrete to apply a floor coating, Rev M.V.P. can be applied just 24 hours later. Whether you use it as a primer or a standalone product, it will help fight off moisture and the problems it can cause.
If you need a moisture protection solution, we’ve got you covered. We help you serve your clients in less time, leaving them happy they hired you and increasing the chance of future referrals.
