All you guys that say he should have did this he should have did that are ridiculous. Shut your unemployed mouths. There are a million ways to skin a cat...now that the building trade has went to shit go on the McDonalds hamburger video's and tell them how their wrist should have been at a 45 degree angle while flipping the half cooked patty.
Losers.

@mister2drums there are moisture vapor reduction systems available from professional flooring installers. Dont bother with the Home Depot stuff, it wont work over time. A proper moisture test, such as calcium chloride or relative humidity test should be conducted in order to find the amount of moisture coming through the top of the slab. A proper moisture vapor barrier is normally a modified epoxy system that the flooring will be installed on top of.
