"My Chimney was condemned and other chimney specialists quoted high price for creosote removal. These companies also tried to move me to a steel liner replacement with a fireplace insert. I just wanted what I had - my standard fireplace. Chimney Scientists creosote removal and ceramic chimney repair came in at half the cost. But more importantly, gave me my fireplace back! The entire team was responsive, friendly and professional. I also received a 25 year guarantee on the ceramic repairs. I would recommend Chimney Scientists to anyone who wants quality work, friendly service, and a good price."

Gray Construction was established in February of 1988. The company was started with only a vision and a few hand tools. One of those tools was an old sledgehammer that was passed down by my great grandfather. He used that sledgehammer to drive railroad spikes into wooden sleepers during railroad construction. And in our humble beginnings we used that same sledgehammer to break up concrete. Today we use jack hammers with pneumatic concrete breakers on the machines. We have come a long way. Additional DBA - Stamped Concrete And Landscaping. Additional email - info@graypro.net.
"Responded promptly with very informative information. Came to see my project and gave excellent advice. He could have done what I wanted and would have if I wanted him to, but he talked me out of doing it, which was the right thing to do. I highly recommend!"

State Line Concrete Lifting uses a 2-part specifically designed, eco-friendly line of polyurethane resins to lift, support and raise concrete, fill sub-surface voids, and consolidate weak soils. Unlike traditional mud jacking, where a two inch hole is drilled into a slab for lifting/void filling, State Line Concrete Lifting will only need to drill a 3/8th inch hole (the size of a dime) to perform the same action. Our equipment is for the most part self contained and there is no need for large construction equipment and noisy crews of workers at your home or business. State Line Concrete Lifting's guarantee to you is that the person you meet with is the person who performs the work. Most jobs are done in a day. Talk about Fast! Most surfaces are ready for foot traffic in 15 minutes, Voids are filled and soils are consolidated for stronger water resistant surfaces.

The installation process for a concrete basement floor spans several days to weeks, depending on project scope. Preparation work includes removing existing flooring, creating proper drainage, and establishing a suitable base. The concrete itself requires adequate curing time before finishing treatments can be applied. Weather conditions, basement accessibility, and chosen finish types all influence the overall timeline.
Concrete slabs are constructed at ground level as part of a foundation system, while basement floors are installed below grade within an existing foundation structure. Basement installations often require additional moisture control measures due to their subterranean environment. Both utilize similar materials, but basement floors frequently need specialized preparation to address ground moisture issues and integration with existing foundation walls.
While some preparatory aspects might be manageable for experienced DIYers, concrete basement floor installation requires professional expertise. The process involves precise measurements, proper reinforcement placement, and skilled finishing techniques. Errors in mixing, pouring, or curing can lead to significant structural problems. Most homeowners find that professional installation, though more expensive initially, provides better long-term value and performance.
Proper maintenance includes regular sweeping and occasional mopping with appropriate cleaners. Avoid harsh chemicals that might damage sealants or concrete surfaces. Address spills promptly to prevent staining. Inspect periodically for cracks or signs of moisture problems. Reapply sealants according to product specifications to maintain moisture resistance. Controlling basement humidity helps preserve the floor's condition over time.
A properly installed concrete basement floor can improve moisture management when incorporated with appropriate waterproofing measures. Vapor barriers, drainage systems, and quality sealants all contribute to moisture control. However, concrete alone cannot resolve serious foundation water issues or hydrostatic pressure problems. Comprehensive waterproofing approaches that address exterior drainage, foundation walls, and interior systems provide the best results for persistent moisture concerns.
