Our Concrete Floor Installation Process
Project Assessment
We review the intended use, dimensions, access, drainage, load requirements, and condition of the existing area.
Excavation and Base Preparation
The site is excavated as required and prepared using a properly compacted granular base.
Forming, Insulation, and Reinforcement
Forms, insulation, vapour barriers, and reinforcement are installed based on the project requirements.
Concrete Placement
Concrete is poured, levelled, and consolidated to create a stable and uniform slab.
Finishing and Control Joints
The surface is finished for its intended use, and control joints are installed to help manage natural concrete movement.
Curing
The concrete is given adequate time to cure before it is exposed to vehicles, heavy equipment, or finished flooring.
Concrete Garage Slabs Built for Vehicle Use
Garage floors must support vehicles, equipment, storage, and Calgary’s changing temperatures. Proper preparation is essential to help reduce settlement, uneven areas, and premature deterioration.
Depending on the project, the slab may include:
- Compacted granular base
- Reinforcement
- Insulation
- Vapour barrier
- Thickened slab edges
- Floor drains or proper slope
- Control joints
- Smooth or textured finish
Concrete Basement Floor Installation and Replacement
Basement floors require careful preparation to create a stable surface and help control moisture. We work with homeowners, builders, and renovation contractors on new slabs and replacement floors.
Basement floor projects may include:
- Removal of existing concrete
- Excavation or basement lowering preparation
- Compacted gravel base
- Vapour barrier
- Rigid insulation
- Reinforcement
- Preparation for in-floor heating
- Smooth concrete finishing
Concrete Floor Finishing Options
Smooth Trowel Finish
A clean, smooth finish suitable for garages, basements, workshops, and areas that may receive another flooring product.
Light Broom Finish
Provides additional traction where a more slip-resistant surface is beneficial.
Sealed Concrete
Concrete sealers can help reduce dusting, staining, and moisture penetration.
Preparation for Coatings
The floor can be prepared for future epoxy, polyaspartic, tile, vinyl, or other flooring systems.
Quality Begins Below the Surface
The visible concrete is only part of the finished project. Long-term performance depends heavily on the preparation underneath it.
AT Foundations focuses on:
- Proper excavation and base compaction
- Suitable reinforcement
- Correct floor thickness
- Drainage and slope
- Vapour and moisture considerations
- Careful concrete placement
- Appropriate control joints
- Professional finishing
