For years, I never did moisture tests. A buckled floor in a store remodel changed my mind.

Experience is a tough teacher. That one buckled floor probably cost more than a hundred simple moisture tests would have. It's a hard lesson, but you only need to learn it once.

Seriously, @cora518, it's just one bad floor though.
