Concrete Floor Liquid Dpm

Drybase liquid applied dpm is a liquid applied damp proof membrane providing a barrier to damp and ground gases such as radon carbon dioxide and methane.

Concrete floor liquid dpm.

If you have a engineered wood floor and your new slab is dry below 75 rh then technically you don t need one. It is low odour solvent free and most importantly deals with constant low levels of moisture in concrete floors. Liquid epoxy dpm for existing concrete floors a liquid epoxy damp proof membrane dpm is often used as a remedial solution where an existing dpm has failed or was never installed. But it is an effective way to do it.

If it s solid wood you need a surface dpm. To be honest it s worth having some sort of moisture suppressant put down just to make sure. You should use them to protect all final floor finishes. A decent fitter will test the slab for you before fitting anyway.

When can a dpm be installed. 1200 gauge dpms should be used when a floor is direct to the ground. It s primarily designed for brushing onto concrete floors and fine concrete screeds. Drybase is easy to apply has excellent adhesion properties and is fast drying.

You are essentially painting a concrete floor after all. Weberfloor dpm is an effective liquid damp proof membrane for oversealing cementitious surfaces which contain high levels of residual moisture and permits early overlaying with vinyl carpets and resin based products without the conventional drying out period being observed for concrete bases. It has excellent adhesion to damp cementitious surfaces and once dried provides a dry barrier against moisture below. The drybase range of liquid applied coatings including drybase ecs epoxy floor coatings and drybase liquid applied dpm can be applied directly to damp floors to create a damp proof barrier without raising the floor level.

Rfc liquid damp proof membrane dpm is a professional 2 component applied surface primer. A dpm damp proof membrane is a plastic sheet membrane that sits between a concrete slab or screed and acts as a barrier to stop moisture and contaminants entering a property from the ground. A liquid applied dpm damp proof membrane is a simple solution and an excellent way to damp proof a concrete floor. Drybase products have the advantage of being extremely easy to apply.

A damp proof membrane dpm is used to create a barrier between a concrete or screed subfloor and the floor covering that is laid on top such as wood ceramic or quartz tiles laminate or carpet.
