Answer This Question
A: The 1407 is for indoor use only and concrete moisture vapor emissions must not exceed 3 lbs/1000 sq ft/24 hours. The subfloor must be dry and free of any excess moisture. If you are concerned with humidity and moisture for an indoor application for engineered wood to concrete, we would recommend our 1550 moisture cured urethane formulation.

Answer This Question
A: No, Roberts 1407 is specifically recommended for use on grade and above grade. You may want to consider Roberts 1550 all in one wood flooring adhesive for use with engineered wood flooring below grade(basement). Roberts 1550 is not recommended for use in conjunction with drylok waterproofing material.

Q:We used 1407 to adhere our engineered hardwood to a concrete slab. Concrete was tested and was ideal for install. After a few weeks, a large area started to form mold and pieces started to cup. Would this be moisture wicking up form the 60 yr old slab?
