Basement Floor Coating

Basement Floor Coating In Clarington, Ontario

Basement floor coating that changes a cold grey slab into a dry, bright surface for a rec room, home gym, laundry or hobby room.

The coating bonds straight to the concrete, so there is no carpet to hold damp and no laminate to swell. We grind, fill cracks and apply a primer, a coloured base and a hard-wearing clear coat. Insurance covers every basement on our schedule, and you see each cost on the quote.

Solid colours, flake blends and metallic finishes are all possible. Each one wipes clean and handles dumbbells, washing machines and kids on scooters.

Basement Floor Coating details

Basement Floor Coating Starts With A Moisture Reading

Vapour coming up through the slab is the main reason a basement coating lets go. A meter reading is taken in every basement before a system is chosen.

Much of Clarington sits downhill from the Oak Ridges Moraine, and groundwater drifts south toward Lake Ontario through valleys like Bowmanville Creek and Soper Creek. Homes near those valleys can have damp slabs for much of the year. When the reading comes back high, a vapour-blocking primer goes under the basement floor coating so it stays put.

Older Basements Need More Patching

Older basement slabs often carry cracks, old paint, carpet glue and rough patches. These turn up in older homes near downtown Bowmanville, Newcastle and Orono, and in Courtice houses from the 1970s and 1980s.

We grind off the old finishes and glue, fill the cracks and level the low spots before coating. Each fix appears as its own line on your quote. Once repaired, an older slab takes a basement floor coating just as well as new concrete.

Picking A Finish For A Lower Level Floor

Pick the look by thinking about what the basement will be used for. A home gym does well with a solid colour and a tough clear coat, while a laundry or mudroom suits a speckled blend that hides lint and dirt.

For a family room or home bar, metallic epoxy flooring adds a deep, swirled look. For the busiest spaces, flake epoxy flooring is the easiest to live with. A basement floor coating usually costs about $5 to $9 per square foot.
