    Maybe, I mean the black subfloor. I don't know if it's asphalt but I heard a few builders call if bitumen.
    I've attached a picture of what I mean for the subfloor PXL_20221129_202326817.jpg

    Scratch it with a knife. It you see concrete underneath bitumen adhesive
    If it stays black it’s mastic asphalt
