Basement floors, moisture-tested and built to last.
Basements are won or lost on prep. We diamond-grind and moisture-test every slab, prime with a vapour barrier where the concrete needs it, and finish with a seamless, low-odour coating that turns a damp utility space into a clean, usable room.
Why basements need a different approach.
Below-grade slabs deal with moisture and hydrostatic pressure that garages never see. Skip the testing and a coating will bubble or peel within a season — so we test first, then choose the system that suits your slab.
Moisture & RH testing
Before anything goes down we test the slab for moisture and relative humidity, so the system we spec is matched to what your concrete is actually doing.
Diamond grind & repair
We diamond-grind the slab to a sound profile and repair cracks and pitting — the foundation of a coating that bonds for good.
Vapour-barrier priming
Where moisture readings call for it, we prime with a moisture-tolerant vapour barrier so the finish coat stays put.
Seamless, low-odour finish
A seamless flake or solid-colour finish that’s easy to clean, brightens the space, and uses low-odour products suitable for a lived-in home.
Test, prep, protect, finish.
Basement timelines depend on slab condition and moisture — we’ll give you a realistic schedule up front.
Moisture test
We test the slab for moisture and humidity before quoting the right system.
Diamond grind
The slab is diamond-ground to a clean, bondable profile.
Repair & prime
Cracks are filled and, where needed, a moisture-tolerant vapour-barrier primer is applied.
Coat & broadcast
A seamless base and flake (or solid colour) goes down for an easy-clean surface.
Topcoat & inspect
A protective topcoat is applied, then we walk the finished floor with you.

Basement floor questions, answered.
My basement gets damp — can you still coat it?
Often, yes — but only after testing. We measure the slab’s moisture and relative humidity first. If readings are high we use moisture-tolerant primers and vapour barriers, or recommend addressing the source before coating. We’d rather tell you the truth than watch a floor fail.
Will the coating peel or bubble over time?
That usually comes down to prep and moisture, which is exactly what we test for. Diamond grinding, proper crack repair and the right moisture barrier are what keep a basement floor bonded for the long run.
Is it smelly or safe for a finished basement?
We use low-odour products wherever possible and ventilate the space. Once cured, the floor is seamless, non-porous and easy to keep clean — ideal for living areas, gyms and rec rooms.
Which system is best for a basement — epoxy or polyaspartic?
It depends on the slab. Epoxy is a great high-build base for shaded, below-grade concrete, while polyaspartic adds fast cure and durability. We spec the system to your space after testing rather than forcing a one-size kit.
How much does a basement floor cost?
It depends on the size and condition of the slab, the moisture situation and the finish. We give a clear written quote after a free on-site measure and moisture test.
