Hi all
Not quite DIY but.. I have a problem with damp in solid concrete floor and so far 2 surveying companies have been round to check the floor slab moisture level. I "think" that they both used the Protimeter MMS device (pretty sure the second one did looking at web pics). The second one claimed that the hand set should be held at an angle to the floor when taking a reading. The first surveyor simply laid the device flat on the floor. The readings obtained by the two methods were vastly different. As a result, the first surveyor said the whole ground floor was damp, which I believe is correct from visual evidence (also the first guy had loads of high tech gear which he seemed proficient with). The second surveyor said that the majority of the ground floor was within normal moisture limits
