Moisture Control by Extreme Industrial Coatings
Moisture control is a rather tricky aspect of any building, be it residential, commercial, or industrial. However, regardless of how challenging it can be, the effective control of moisture especially on walls and floors is important to help keep the integrity of these structures. At Extreme Industrial Coatings, our vision is to help you protect your property surfaces, especially your walls and floors, from moisture which can lead to significant damage. We employ only the best products that can do the perfect job of creating an impermeable membrane between your walls or floors and the sources of moisture in your property.
Why Control Moisture?
Most of us look at moisture as something that is beneficial especially to the skin. We apply moisturizers to help hydrate the cells on our skin. We also apply conditioners – a form of moisturizers – to help improve the state of our hair, and so on and so forth.
Unfortunately, the same cannot be said when it comes to the structural integrity of our walls and floors. When moisture seeps into these parts of a building, it can cause a lot of problems that can include failure of the adhesive properties of the floor tiles, the formation or development of efflorescence salts, structural damage to the floor or wall covering itself, and even the growth and proliferation of disease- and allergy-producing mold and mildew.
Keeping moisture from seeping into these parts of your facility is an integral part of moisture control.
Causes of Moisture Damage
Did you know that hundreds of millions of dollars are spent each year in the US alone repairing the damage brought about by excessive moisture onto floors? Moisture damage is typically brought about by water molecules coming from the subfloor of your property. This typically happens if the flooring was haphazardly installed such as not allowing the concrete mix to dry up completely before applying the top layer or covering. It can also be attributed to using a more liquid cement mixture, the concrete slab getting wet because of precipitation, and even inadequate drying conditions such as what usually occurs when the air temperature is no higher than 50oF. This is why moisture control is so critical in your next project.
In many cases, however, moisture damage occurs because the construction of the floor did not include the application of a low-permeability, tear- and puncture-resistant vapor barrier. The infiltration of water from external sources can also lead to moisture damage on your flooring.
Whatever the cause of moisture damage in your property, you don’t have to feel helpless because our moisture control systems can help you re-establish control over the integrity of your flooring and walls.
Moisture Control Systems
At Extreme Industrial Coatings, our mission is to help you provide a more effective barrier on your floor and wall surfaces so that moisture from within will not seep through. The epoxy products we use are duly-tested and are guaranteed to create an impermeable membrane between the surface of your walls and floors and the interior space of your property. This way you don’t need to fuss about the dangers of breathing in air that is potentially filled with mold spores as well as mildew. There is also no need to worry about losing the integrity of your surfaces and expose you to the possibility of expensive repairs.
The epoxy moisture control systems that we provide are used in a variety of settings. From ordinary processing facilities to large-scale manufacturing plants and even commercial and business complexes. We have the right solution for every type of moisture control need. You can trust our technicians to be highly proficient in the application of such moisture control systems to give you an unparalleled peace of mind.
Our goal is to minimize, if not eliminate, the risk of microbiological activity and structural failures related to having excess moisture in your concrete slabs. This is our way of making sure your home or business is safe for both you and the other people who use your facilities.
Extreme Industrial Coatings has been helping commercial establishments, industries, and public works control excess moisture coming from the subsurface. We’ve been doing it for many years and we’ve yet to encounter a moisture control problem that we cannot solve. This is our guarantee to you.
