Whether you’re finishing your basement, replacing a cracked slab, or prepping for future improvements, Alba Contractors Inc. provides professional basement floor installation across Mentor, OH and the Greater Cleveland area.
Concrete Basement Floor Installation in Greater Cleveland & Mentor, OH
With over 30 years of experience, our in-house team knows how to manage Ohio’s moisture-prone soils, prevent settling, and pour concrete that’s ready for foot traffic, flooring systems, or even vehicle loads in basement garages.
Why Upgrade or Replace a Basement Floor?
Older basement floors often suffer from:
- Cracks and heaving from hydrostatic pressure or poor compaction
- Uneven surfaces that make finishing difficult
- Excess moisture infiltration from below the slab
We replace aging or damaged basement slabs with reinforced, moisture-managed concrete floors designed for long-term performance. Our solutions are ideal for homeowners looking to renovate or simply create a cleaner, safer foundation.
Our Basement Floor Installation Process
Whether it’s a full replacement or part of a basement remodel, we follow a step-by-step approach to ensure strength, smoothness, and stability:
- Assessment and Planning: We evaluate the condition of your current floor or soil, check for water issues, and plan proper elevation and drainage.
- Demolition (if replacing): Existing concrete is carefully removed and disposed of. We also remove any soft or unsuitable base material.
- Subbase Preparation: We compact a gravel or crushed stone base and may install a vapor barrier to reduce moisture transmission.
- Forming and Reinforcement: We set forms and add rebar or mesh for added strength and load-bearing support.
- Concrete Pouring: The slab is poured, leveled, and finished to your needs—typically smooth trowel for indoor use or broom finish if required.
- Curing and Cleanup: After proper curing, we clean the site and review the finish to ensure it’s ready for future flooring or use.
