How to pour a concrete floor for an existing garage.
In this video I'm showing you how to pour a garage floor that's 32' x 24' x 4" thick.
The concrete for this garage floor is a 3500 psi mix with micro fiber mesh. I also installed a 6 mil poly vapor barrier to help block moisture from coming up through the concrete.
My technique for pouring a concrete floor is basically mix the concrete to a workable slump (how wet or dry it is) then pour out most of the concrete.
I set my center grade using a Laser Level (link down below) and I float my edges to the chalk line grade I established earlier on the foundation walls.
I screed the concrete floor (it slopes from back to front 2.5") then I bull float the concrete smooth.
That's the basic pouring technique I use for all my concrete floors, especially garage floors.
The next step is to wait for the concrete to set up enough to power trowel it smooth. You can learn how to do that in The Concrete Underground below.
