Interior Concrete Floors Can Settle Too
Basement slabs and interior concrete floors in Winnipeg are not immune to settling. Soil consolidation beneath the slab, changes in moisture levels, and the effects of frost over many years can cause interior floors to develop low spots, unlevel areas, or sections that rock underfoot. This creates problems for flooring installations, drainage, and general livability.
Why Foam Lifting is Ideal for Interior Floors
Our hydrophobic concrete lifting foam is the method of choice for interior floor leveling, for several key reasons:
- Minimal mess — foam is injected in a controlled, clean process. No slurry, no pumping large volumes of material into your basement.
- Precision — foam allows very fine control of the lift, critical when leveling floors for tile, hardwood, or finished concrete applications where millimeters matter.
- Fast cure — foam reaches full strength within an hour. Your basement is back in use quickly, with no extended downtime.
- No excavation — the entire process happens through small holes in the slab. No breaking up large sections, no hauling debris, no disruption to your finished or partially finished basement.
What We Can Level
- Basement slabs with general settling or localized low spots
- Interior garage floors (attached garages with interior access)
- Workshop or utility room concrete floors
- Commercial interior slabs in retail, office, or industrial buildings
- Floors prior to tile, flooring, or epoxy coating installation
The Process
We drill small holes through the interior slab — typically under 1 inch in diameter — at strategic locations. Foam is injected beneath the slab and expands to fill voids and raise the low sections. The rise is monitored in real time. When the floor is level, holes are patched cleanly. In most cases, the entire job is done in a single visit and the space is usable the same day.
