Moisture-related flooring failures continue to be one of the biggest headaches on the job, resulting in commercial property owners spending well over $1 billion annually on moisture remediation and subsequent flooring replacement.
“We get, on average, 45 calls per week about moisture in floors,” said Rick Morris, vice president of commercial hard surfaces, Shaw. “Talking to our contractors, our dealers and our A&D audience, we estimate that about 15% to 25% of all projects out there have some kind of moisture concern.”
