What to record
- Record the known covering and removal method.
- Photograph the exposed floor, joints and differing surface areas.
- Keep any product or test records and label unknown residues honestly.
The decision to discuss
Ask whether further material evaluation, preparation or moisture testing is needed for the proposed finish. An exposed surface is not automatically ready for coating.
Why the surrounding context matters
Moisture requirements depend on the selected flooring or surface system. Keep reported test methods, locations and results with the proposal. A dry-looking photograph and a documented evaluation answer different questions; neither should be described as the other.
Further background: NRMCA: concrete slab moisture. This general background does not diagnose your property.
