The Problem with Poor Basement Flooring

Basement floors endure significant stress from moisture, soil pressure, and temperature changes. Without proper concrete floors, your basement can face issues like:

  • Moisture Infiltration: Unsealed or poorly installed floors allow water to seep through, causing dampness and mold.
  • Cracking and Uneven Surfaces: Soil settlement or low-quality concrete can lead to cracks and uneven floors.
  • Reduced Usability: A damaged floor limits your basement’s potential for functional or recreational use.
  • Health Risks: Excess moisture fosters mold growth, impacting indoor air quality.

Neglecting these issues can compromise your home’s structural integrity and decrease property value. Our basement concrete floor installation addresses these problems, providing a stable, waterproof surface that enhances your home’s safety and value.

Our Basement Concrete Floor Installation Process

01

Site Assessment: We inspect your basement to evaluate existing conditions, including moisture levels and structural integrity.

02

Surface Preparation: We remove old  concrete floor, add gravel, level the subbase and address any cracks or voids.

03

Vapor Barrier: A layer of plastic vapor barrier can be added for added protection.

04

Concrete Pouring: High-quality concrete is poured and leveled to create a smooth, durable cement basement floor.

05

Reinforcement: We can add a layer of rebar mesh to enhance flexibility and prevent future cracking.

06

Finishing: The surface is hand floated with magnesium trowels to ensure resistance to water and wear.

07

Drainage Integration: If required, we install drainage boards and connect to weeping tile systems to manage hydrostatic pressure.

08

Final Cleanup: The area is restored to its original condition, with all debris removed and surfaces cleaned.

Signs You Need a New Basement Concrete Floor

  • Visible Cracks: Cracks in your basement floor indicate structural issues or soil movement.
  • Uneven Surfaces: Sloping or dipping floors suggest an unstable base.
  • Water Seepage: Puddles or damp spots on the floor point to poor waterproofing.
  • Mold or Odors: Musty smells or visible mold signal moisture problems.
  • Worn or Damaged Flooring: Old, crumbling concrete reduces usability and aesthetics. 

What Happens If You Ignore Basement Floor Issues?

  • Water Damage: Unaddressed moisture leads to mold, damaging stored items and interiors.
  • Structural Risks: Cracks can worsen, compromising your home’s foundation.
  • Health Hazards: Mold and mildew from damp floors can cause respiratory issues.
  • Lower Property Value: A damaged basement deters potential buyers.
  • Higher Costs: Delaying repairs increases the scope and expense of future fixes.

Going thru some old files for my rental property, I discovered a contract which Gavin had signed in Jan 2007 to repair a foundation leak in my basement. This leak had been 'fixed' multiple times by others using epoxy. Gavin explained that the only sure way to fix the leak once and for all, was to dig down to the foundation from the outside to seal the cracks, plus provide a waterproof barrier against the wall. The work was done excellently and came with a 15 year warranty. It has been 19 years and no leaks have occurred. If you want a basement leak fixed right the first time, then contact GJ MacRae Foundation Repair. Highly recommended.

Today Gavin MacRae did thorough inspection of 2 sump pumps & battery backups which he installed in 2018 - both systems still performing well. Prior to 2018 MacRae Foundation did extensive foundation/waterproofing for us - quality of workmanship excellent. Without hesitation, strongly recommend MacRae Foundation.

We had a difficult project requiring excavation, waterproofing, and installing a sump pump on a 130 year old house, and GJ MacRae did an amazing and very thorough job. They went above and beyond to repair the foundation that had started to deteriorate as well. Very professional and high quality work. I'd definitely recommend this company!

Great job. Fast response to inquiries, job done fast and professionally. Put everything around the area back in place to the point where you wouldn't even know any work was done afterwards. Would 100% recommend calling them if you have a foundation repair issue.

Let's just say that there aren't many companies of this calibre around these days. We've been dealing with GJ MacRae for the last seven years for everything sump pump related. Seven years ago the fine folks at GJ MacRae came in and replaced our existing sump with a modern unit complete with a marine battery backup and secondary pump. We have a ton of ground water around here and when it rains our sump fires non stop. Everything has been perfect and when it came time to service our system seven years in, GJ MacRae was all over it. Exceptional service, communication price and product. It's rare to see all 3 these days. Thanks for everything Gavin.
