Home/Services/Interior floors

Interior concrete floors for shops, barns and garages.

A floor you will drive on, park on and work on every day has to start flat and stay flat. We prep the base, set the forms and machine finish the surface to a smooth, glass-like floor.

Polished concrete floor inside a barn
What is included

Done in a set order.

01Base first

Grade, compact and level the stone before any concrete arrives.

02Reinforced to suit

Mesh or rebar set for how the floor will be used.

03Machine finished

Screeded, then power troweled to a smooth, glass-like surface.

Most of the floors we pour are inside pole barns, shops and garages. These are big, open slabs, so small mistakes in the base or the finish show up as low spots, standing water and cracks that wander. The work is mostly done before the truck arrives.

Tell us what the floor will carry. A shed for lawn tractors and a shop with a lift are different jobs, and the thickness, reinforcement and joint layout change with them.

How a job goes
  1. Walk the buildingCheck the site, the access for trucks and where the floor needs to drain.
  2. Prepare the baseStone is graded and compacted so the slab sits on firm, even ground.
  3. Set forms and reinforcementForms define the edges and height. Mesh or rebar goes in for the load.
  4. Pour and finishConcrete is placed and screeded, then machine finished while it is workable for a smooth, glass-like surface.
  5. Cut joints and cureControl joints are cut so cracking happens where it should, then the slab cures.
Questions

Common questions about interior floors.

How long before I can use the floor?
Foot traffic is usually fine after a day or two. Wait about a week before driving or parking on it, and longer before heavy loads. Weather changes this, so we tell you on the day.
Can you pour a floor in a building that already has walls?
Yes. Many of our floors go into finished pole barns and shops. Truck access and a clear working space are the main questions, so tell us about the doors.
Will the floor crack?
Concrete can crack. Good base prep, correct reinforcement and properly placed joints control where and how much. We cut joints so any cracking follows a straight line, not a random one.
