Not all concrete floors are created equal — and many basements or garages in Toronto were poured decades ago with little consideration for modern moisture control or structural longevity. If you're seeing cracks, water stains, or floor unevenness, it's time to consider full slab replacement.
Replacing your concrete floor isn't just a repair—it's a functional upgrade that enhances waterproofing performance, load stability, and future usability. As basement waterproofing experts, Aquaboss ensures that every new floor is moisture-protected from below and structurally built for what comes next.
Aquaboss follows a precise, structured method to ensure your new concrete floor is flat, strong, dry, and ready for use. Each phase is engineered for long-term durability and moisture control, especially in Toronto’s basement and garage environments.
Every concrete floor we install is prepared to interface seamlessly with waterproofing systems, interior insulation, and load-bearing expectations. Our team ensures the floor you stand on is one you can trust.

We inspect the existing concrete slab to identify cracks, moisture seepage, or grading issues. If necessary, we break and remove the old floor to expose the sub-base for regrading and moisture protection.
We regrade the subfloor with crushed stone and compact it to ensure proper drainage and long-term support. A polyethylene vapor barrier is installed to stop moisture migration from below.
We install steel mesh, fiber reinforcement, or rebar depending on load requirements and building code. These reinforcements prevent slab cracking and resist settling over time.
Fresh concrete is poured and laser-leveled to ensure slope control and surface smoothness. We match the finish to your plans — broomed for garages, smooth for future basement flooring, or floated for coatings.
We allow the concrete slab to cure fully over several days for maximum strength. If required, we apply sealants or surface coatings. Afterward, the site is cleaned and left ready for the next stage of your project.
In Toronto, all basement and garage concrete floors must meet structural and moisture standards outlined in Part 9 of the Ontario Building Code (OBC). Aquaboss constructs every concrete slab in full compliance with these standards, ensuring safe, long-lasting performance.
For basement slabs, the minimum required thickness is 4 inches.
We use reinforced concrete with moisture-resistant additives for added durability.
In areas like utility rooms, mechanical closets, or basements with floor drains, the slab must slope gently toward the drain.
We achieve this using laser-guided leveling tools to meet slope tolerance while maintaining visual flatness.
Additional compliance factors include:
Aquaboss follows every code line item—from slope and thickness to curing protocol—to ensure your basement slab passes inspection and performs as expected.
Concrete floor work isn’t just about pouring cement — it’s about precision, structural integrity, moisture protection, and future-ready performance. At Aquaboss, we approach every concrete installation through the lens of basement durability and waterproofing compatibility, ensuring that your new slab becomes a long-term asset for your home.
When you choose Aquaboss, you get more than a concrete floor — you get a foundation built to perform.

When installing or replacing a concrete floor, selecting the right surface finish is crucial for performance, safety, and long-term durability—especially in basements, garages, and interior spaces awaiting flooring. Aquaboss offers finishing options tailored to your space, use case, and post-install goals.
A smooth trowel finish produces a dense, flat surface suitable for interior basements. It is commonly used as a sub-base for finished flooring such as tile or laminate. The smooth surface supports vapor barrier adhesion and flooring glue systems. Aquaboss recommends this finish for basements that will receive floor coverings.
It delivers an aesthetic, adhesive-ready surface compatible with vapor barriers and flooring glue systems. This finish is standard for basements that will later receive floor coverings.
A broom finish is applied by dragging a stiff-bristle broom across the surface after troweling. It creates texture that enhances traction—especially in garages, utility rooms, or outdoor slabs.
This finish is both functional and slip-resistant, making it a safety-focused option for areas exposed to water, vehicles, or outdoor debris.
Polished or stained concrete provides a finished visual surface without requiring additional floor coverings. We offer acid staining and mechanical polishing for a sealed, dust-resistant, and moisture-tolerant result. These finishes enhance aesthetics while preserving the slab’s structural integrity.
If your goal is to install tile, vinyl plank, or engineered wood, we prep the slab accordingly. This includes surface leveling, vapor barrier integration, and edge smoothness. The result is a floor that's adhesive-ready, free of ridges, and compliant with flooring manufacturer requirements.
No matter the finish, Aquaboss ensures your concrete slab is both functional and visually aligned with your basement goals.
