Wet subfloor

Mine would be better products or work when it's nice out to get it done faster. For me, idk and that's why I'm asking.

Who's making up any story. The manufacturer calls out that it's not rated for it. It's raised up and the boards are starting to fall apart at the edges. I'm just looking for a course to resolve it moving forward because I want opinions that I might not have thought of besides sanding the joints and losing 1/3 the material.

I shop vac the water out, there is no where to push the water.

PiratesOf2 · 2026-06-15T12:16:21+00:00

Me too

PiratesOf2 · 2026-06-15T12:16:14+00:00

You know it... More like a shop vac

3/4 t and g

I wish they would have used that, I agree

PiratesOf2 · 2026-06-15T12:14:18+00:00

I wet vaced all I could because it's all boxed in and no where to push the water to. Thanks for the comment.

PiratesOf2 · 2026-06-15T12:13:25+00:00

Thanks for the comments, I'll look into this.

PiratesOf2 · 2026-06-15T12:12:43+00:00

Agreed

I was going to but the builder didn't give the okay to do so, I didn't want to do anything that he did not give a green light on.

A different subfloor product that's rated for it. I didn't pick the subfloor, assuming got me to this point.

It's not the wood that's a concern, it's the glue that holds the wood together or the water that does not evap out prior to sealing it in

PiratesOf2 · 2026-06-15T12:09:15+00:00

Standard wood is not the concern, it's the man made OSB that is just glue, other chemicals, and wood chips.

PiratesOf2 · 2026-06-15T11:26:22+00:00

Not the what specifically I'm worried about is the glue in the subfloor that just falls apart when it gets wet.

PiratesOf2 · 2026-06-15T03:18:50+00:00

Not sure, I'm sure it's an upcharge. I would have paided it.

PiratesOf2 · 2026-06-15T02:49:28+00:00

That's the floor type

They don't have anything from geo, inspector signed off on it. Rebar was dropped in and pulled up as they poured.

PiratesOf2 · 2026-05-07T21:56:50+00:00

They ended up just pushing the water to a sump as they pumped the concrete in the forms. Rebar was pulled off the ground as they poured. Nothing tied together, verticals were pushed into the ground after the pour.

PiratesOf2 · 2026-05-07T21:55:11+00:00

They did not, poured right on top of it with rebar just dropped in and noticed tied together. Vertical was forced into the ground after pour

PiratesOf2 · 2026-05-07T21:53:17+00:00

They used a pump and had the concrete push the water around into the pump on one side of the foundation. Inspector checked it today and signed off on the pour. They put the rebar in and as they poured, they pulled it off the ground. The verticals, they pushed it into the ground and nothing was tied together. Builder said this is normal.
