nobleone on "Moving WP site from one server to another on same host & domain"

We recently moved from one server to another within our host (both servers are on GoDaddy). The old server had the wordpress site installed as a subdomain:

public_html/blog/all WP files

When we moved to the new server, we wanted the blog to now be the primary domain. In order to do this, tech support told us we had to keep all the blog files on the root directory:

public_html/all WP files

I have exported and backed up locally all the wp files and the database.sql from the old server. Because this site is still on the same host with the same URL, I assumed no edits would be necessary and that we would simply copy the files to the new directory and import the database. Is this correct or am I missing a vital step?
