About basements and Inside concrete floors
Any concrete floor below surface level (grade level) is always expose to some level of humidity. Concrete is very porous and therefore it transfers moisture very easily from a humid environment to a dry environment. Many concrete foundations on the outside are treated with a black tar to prevent direct moisture transfer thru the concrete. Usually this method works well for a few years. Overtime the tar becomes brittle and fails to prevent moisture transfer thru the foundation.
ReUse Concrete Sealing has developed a line of SealGreen products to address this problem even when the outside foundation wall is already covered with dirt.
Our SealGreen Concrete Sealer can be spray on the inside of the concrete foundation wall that is not painted or treated with any other chemicals. This will mitigate the humidity from the outside transfer into the basement. Foundations walls treated with SealGreen Concrete Sealer can be painted with a standard paint for walls to enhance the look of the wall.
Humidity transfers from the cold humid environment (outside concrete foundation wall or floor) to a dry warm environment (inside concrete foundation wall or floor). It is common to have a basement that is not finish show no humidity problems, but as a soon as the inside of the basement is warm by the air-conditioning unit it will start drawing humidity thru the floor and the wall if untreated. Air conditioning systems warm the air by drawing all the cold moisture out of the air. This dries the room and starts pulling moisture from concrete floors and walls.
There are many sealers in the industry penetrating, acrylics, epoxies, polyurethanes, etc. they are all design for special purposes so before sealing concrete it is important to define the purpose of why are you sealing.
1. When you are addressing humidity problems in concrete you have to select a sealer that will stop the humid molecules from transferring thru the floor as well as allowing the concrete to breath to prevent sealer failure.
2. All sealers with vapor barrier mitigating capabilities have a maximum limit to stop humidity transfer. This is why a humidity test is important before a sealer is applied. A humidity test will provide a number that can be easily related to the vapor barrier capabilities of the sealer.
The typical signs of a basement or inside floor with humidity problems are:
1. Humidity smell
2. White powder on the floor (Efflorescence – humidity is leaching salts from the concrete to the surface)
3. Paint peeling of the floor
4. Random dark concrete areas as opposed to light areas
5. When a plastic container is set on top of concrete after a few days it leaves a humid spot under the item.
6. Vinyl floor pealing
7. Loose ceramic tiles or white powder showing on the grout.
8. Carpet padding melting or sticking to the concrete surface creating a strange smell
