Are you suggesting some sort of underlayment is to be used on the concrete before the wood subfloor?Thanks,Joe Hi Todd,

I didn’t think using wood directly on or against concrete was recommended due to moisture. Are you suggesting some sort of underlayment is to be used on the concrete before the wood subfloor?

Thanks,

Joe

You need to remove the adhesive. I would actually ask a local flooring supplier for some advice. It's likely that there is a commercially available product for removing adhesive that might work well.Instead of a self leveler can you use a wood sub-floor instead? Just a thought.

The concrete has a mildly tacky, black adhesive on it from the previous flooring. My question is: What are your suggested methods for prepping a basement concrete floor in order to ensure that the self-leveler will bond properly to the concrete?Thank you,JoeP.S. Great site--refer to it quite often! Hi Todd-
