Hi
I had a new workshop built last year, but had major problems with rising damp through the floor slab.
After a long dispute with the builder and the complete removal/replacement of the slab I finally ended up with a dry building.
I am now ready to begin equipping the shop but decided to lay a wooden floating floor using P5 grade t&g chipboarding flooring panels.
Though the P5 chipboard is moisture resistant I would like to add some additional protective finish to the floor to protect agains future spills etc.
I would appreciate some advice on a suitable finish to apply which will be durablle and give some additional waterproofing.
I have been thinking of maybe using a decking oil/stain or maybe a fence coating product like the Cuprinol ducksback range. Logically I guess the decking products should be more suitable, but I would appreciate any advice on these or any other products I should consider for the workshop floor.
