water sealing concrete
parents installed wood floors last september and here in so cal, we had heavy rains the past winter. well, it seems the rain water may have seeped into the concrete and come up from under the house. the floors buckled everywhere. we called insurance and since it's not water pipe damage, they're not covering it.
we pulled the strips out carefully and pulled up some plywood. lots of it is wet. a contractor told me of some concrete sealer that would prevent seepage of water. does something of this sort exist? i've looked at thompson's but that seems to more protect the concrete. i'm gonna spend the summer laying down the wood floors again and i don't want to have to do it again. so i'm hoping to seal the concrete and make sure water doesn't come up again.
thanks in advance
