Have a question about installing on concrete

[Gene Johnson]

I am building a new bedroom and the floor is concrete, what do I need under the carpet pad ? Some kind of moisture barrier?

Nope let it breath.

Nope let it breath.

My dad ,who is 78, thinks we should paint the floor grey first...

Is it at grade, below grade, or above grade?

It's a garage that was framed in with two rooms, so I'm guessing it's at grade

Paint is not a vapor retarder.
