ICRI: Certified Concrete Slab Moisture Testing Technician: David Hill Texas Best Flooring Company Inc.

We are the only licensed flooring company in Texas that is certified to test your concrete slab for moisture. All flooring manufactures require a concrete moisture test before you install their flooring. Due to a lack of skill & knowledge (and outright laziness), many flooring companies and installers will skip this step resulting in their customer’s flooring having moisture problems months after being installed. A calcium chloride test or other tests can result in a more consistent, accurate, and reliable result that can help flooring manufacturers, architects, engineers, homeowners, and contractors make better decisions as to when a concrete floor is ready for a floor covering installation. For a calcium chloride test, we charge $600 plus the cost of the kits $25.00 each. For every 1,000SF you need 3 test and for each additional 1,000SF, you need 2 tests.

The $600 fee is due before we come to the job site and the balance of $25.00 per kit is due upon test results.

We also do concrete repair work, grinding slabs and slab floor prep work for new flooring, leveling for flatness ect. Contact us about the details of your concrete flooring needs.
