Protect Your Floors With Moisture Mitigation & Testing
Moisture mitigation and testing help prevent flooring failure by identifying excess concrete humidity and applying vapor barrier systems. CustomCrete ensures your surface is dry, stable, and ready for long-lasting floor installation—protecting your investment from bubbling, adhesive breakdown, and costly delays.

Prevents Costly Failures
Stops adhesive breakdown, bubbling, and coating delamination caused by high concrete moisture—before they compromise your floor.
Speeds Up Your Schedule
Moisture barriers can be applied just 7 days after concrete pour, keeping fast-track projects on time without sacrificing performance.
Ensures Floor Warranty Compliance
Accurate testing and mitigation ensure RH levels meet manufacturer specs, so your flooring system stays protected and under warranty.
Why Moisture Mitigation Matters
When concrete moisture goes unchecked, even the best flooring systems are at risk. Without proper testing and mitigation, your investment could fail before it ever has a chance to perform.
- Flooring adhesives break down, causing bubbles or lifting
- Mold and mildew grow beneath the surface, risking health and safety
- Warranties are voided due to non-compliant moisture levels
How Moisture Mitigation Solves the Problem
By investing in proper moisture testing and a professionally installed vapor barrier system, you eliminate the hidden risks that often go undetected until it's too late. Moisture-related floor failures don’t just affect performance—they cause downtime, health concerns, and expensive repairs.
CustomCrete’s moisture mitigation solutions are designed to catch problems early and provide a reliable barrier that protects your flooring system from the inside out. With our process in place, you can move forward with confidence, knowing your floor is structurally sound, compliant with manufacturer specifications, and built to last in even the most demanding environments.

Hear from past clients
"Used CustomCrete for a urethane cement flooring application (Carbocrete HF) in a harsh manufacturing setting where all prior epoxy/concrete flooring either popped off due to heat/moisture or was eaten through by our corrosive product.
The team was easy to work with and very responsive to changes in scope as well as working around other vendors during a plant turnaround."
-Jack Barkow
"We had a floor that had been painted several times and looked very abused. It was becoming difficult to keep clean and looking nice. Tom came in, pulled up all the paint, and brought the floor back to its original state. It now shines and is easy to maintain."
-James Petryka
"CustomCrete and their crew did a fantastic installation on my floor project. Any questions or concerns that I had were addressed by Tom himself. Very happy with the service they had provided to me."

What Clients Ask About Moisture Mitigation & Testing
We get a lot of questions about when moisture mitigation is necessary, what’s involved, and how it fits into a flooring project. Here are some of the most common questions we hear from clients across industries.
How do I know if my concrete needs moisture mitigation?
If your floor has a relative humidity (RH) reading above 85%, mitigation is typically required before flooring can be installed. Testing methods like RH probes or calcium chloride kits help determine if you're at risk.
Can moisture mitigation delay my construction schedule?
No—our system is designed to support fast-track projects. It can be applied as early as 7 days after the concrete is poured, helping you stay on schedule while protecting your floor system.
Is moisture mitigation always required for new floors?
Not always, but it’s common. Even new slabs can trap moisture, especially in humid environments or when poured over vapor-retardant materials. Testing helps determine if mitigation is necessary before flooring is installed.
