I need to pour a new garage floor over the top of my current garage floor. I'd love to talk to someone that actually knew something about this stuff... I'm a rank novice. Details: I have an existing

Quoting Mark Andy <mark@sccaprepared.com>: I'll leave that answer to the experts. I would *assume* you could do so... When I built a garage onto our old house, I had the floor poured *after* I built

Couple of things I hate about fiber in concrete 1. It gets into your skin if you lie down on it. (Some people claim it goes away if you burn it off with a torch, doesn't work for me). 2. It gets cau

You have some serious problem with your floor base and should correct those before you throw concrete on it, or you may end up with the same problems in new concrete. It won't take too long or cost t

Ah. Yeah, sounds like I should go with regular rebar or wire mesh or whatever. The old floor does have some cracked areas that have settled pretty good. Mostly the floor appears solid. Perhaps I'll

If this is an issue you could consider adding a second sump in the garage and a second sump pump. The pump is cheap enough and the sump can be as simple as breaking up a bit of the old slab and stic

Outlets in the floor? That's against code. Or did yo mean outlets on a post in the middle of the floor? Jon

Mark have you given any thought to having the existing floor re-leveled? Might be a lot cheaper and far less hassle. I had my drive and sidewalk "mud jacked" and have been very pleased with the resul
