Shaw Wet Letter

Heard that Shaw has a std. letter for wet slabs. Any hints? Any experience? I have a customer refusing to do moisture testing... big hurry up.

I don't have an answer for you but I must say the first thing that popped out when I read this way "Shaw has an std".
I think that means I'm a pervert.

Moisture testing is a require step in the successful and lasing installation, of laminate and wood flooring, along with anything glued down to the concrete, or wood substrates.

If they refuse the moisture test, get a specific waiver(admission of guilt) or walk away.

^^^ Absolutely!

Why would someone refuse a moisture test, is what you need to ask yourself. That in and of itself would make me wonder if I really wanted to do business with that client.
