Abstract
Whether for new construction or renovation, proper subfloor preparation is essential for executing a quality floor installation while extending the life of the flooring. In the last 20 to 30 years, regulations on volatile organic compounds (VOCS) have made buildings safer for occupants; however, these regulations have created new challenges for general contractors, as in the case of moisture vapor related flooring failures.
