Hi

The floor of my basement use to be covered by a carpet and underneath it a vinyl tiles. I removed both of them. I am not sure what the floor is made from. Not sure if it is cement of something else. My house was build in 1926..

I took a picture of this floor. you can see it here

http://tinypic.com/r/243nccm/9

My question, do you know from that pic which kind of floor is that (cement or something else). Also any recommendation how to keep it nice. Any material I can put it to clean it, make it better looking, shining etc. I had to remove both the carpet and vinyl because of the water.

Thanks a lotl.

???

What water.

If the floor periodically floods, you need to stop that before
you attempt to do anything to beautify the floor.

Yes, that is cement.

There are lots of ways to make it look good, it depends a lot
on what you want and want to spend:

Looks like concrete, just marked up from the tiles. You can tap it with
a hammer and it should be very hard and have a sound of solid. Thump a
concrete wall for an example.

Is the water problem solved? If so, I'd put a cheap laminate floor
down. It will look good and be fairly easy to clean.

Looks like concrete to me too. Painting it is one option. It keeps dust down and will make it look nicer. Also depends on what it will be used for. And as someone else posted, make sure the water problem is really solved first.

Thank you all for the help. Yes painting is a good option. I do not want to put anything else for now. I like it that way. I mean not hardwood, tile etc. Now my question what kind of paint? is there any special paint for that?

About the water, the water come inside my basement when the snow start melting, only then I see water inside my basement. If it rains and no matter how strong the rain, my basement keeps dry. So I thought it is a crack in the foundation that allow the melting ice go inside my basement. Thank all once again.

Yes, they have paint and solid stain formulated for concrete. Whether it will stay or peel depends on your water problem. If the water comes from a crack in the wall and doesn't amount to much or stay long, you could be OK. But if it's coming up through the floor, the paint will bubble and come off. The water problem should be identified and fixed.

I painted my basement floor 40 plus years ago with floor paint from
Sears and have not had to repaint. It has gotten wet a couple of times.
I had some old carpeting pieces but they got stinking wet so floor is
just bare. Before painting I had mopped the floor with dilute muriatic
acid to remove dust and give paint a clean surface.

Most likely, the melting snow raises the water table and you are getting
seepage. Epoxy paints are good on concrete, but NOTHING will last
long with getting soaked with water.

You need to solve the water problem.

They make some laminate flooring now that's supposed to be water proof.
If it gets wet, take it up, dry it, put to down again.

Still recommend solving the water issue.

Thank you for your reply all, but how to solve the water problem? It is very inconsistent. We had very heavy rain last week but my basement was so dry! that was my observation, it gets wet in spring when the temperature goes above 0, it wont happen so often but 3-4 times a year. Thanks a lot.

Looks like concrete - the only way to make it look good is to cover
it with something. Likely too saft to grind and polish like terrazo.

Leza. I can't tell exactly. That floor resembles tiles/stone or
similar with lines at 12 inch by 12 inch. Is there grout along the
horizontal and vertical lines?

If so, it could be cleaned up and used as is.

The water problem might be something simple. Does all the
ground surrounding the house slope away from the house? It could have
settled over the years. Even a few inches right against the foundation
will matter.

How would a grading issue only cause melting snow water to enter the basement
but not heavy rain water? I'm not saying it's not a grading issue, just curious as to
how it would cause the symptoms that Leza is experiencing.

Ice & xnow builds up on the ground and forms an ice dam -
perhaps from foot traffic - even if only a few inches deep -
it might affect the natural run-off during the springtime melts -
creating a puddle near the foundation which has nowhere to go
but down. If the homeowner monitors the sump pump activity
- it will provide a good time to examine all the various
basement wetness causes - hence solutions.
As suggested - foundation grading is a common culprit.
A couple times over the years when I've seen some winter puddling
near my foundation - I've hacked a small run-off trench into the ice
with a pick-ax, just in case.

I thought about that and it is possible. The ground right next to the
foundation may not be freezing for the first 6 to 12 inches allowing the
melt to seep rather than run down a path. Not sure if just grading
would cure that though, some sort of waterproofing may be required.

The eaves troughs direct rainfall from the roof away, and thawied
ground lets water spak away - frozen ground does not let the water get
away, and water pools against the foundation where there is no frost
due to poorly insulated foundation. Common problem. grade away from
the house and very good chance the problem goes away.

I'd also add that she should go outside during a heavy rain and actually
see what's happening with the water. I've been surprised to find that
there is a problem with what looked fine just by observation when it's
not raining. In my case, it was a piece of corrugated pipe shoved onto
one of the leaders. When it rained heavy, the water managed to come out the
top of it, right at the foundation.

My thought was about the timing. A heavy rain could fall into
ground that isn't saturated. It could evaporate and soak in before the
next one hits. Snow runoff could
sit for weeks without much chance to evaporate or soak into frozen ground.

next one hits. Snow runoff could
sit for weeks without much chance to evaporate or soak into frozen ground..

Two coats of drylock on the slab floor and cinder block walls may not keep out water that is under pressure, but it will reduce the humidity that seeps through everyday.

Thank you all. I will consider Drylock but before that I want to ask you a question. How to clean the floor before I paint it. It is sticky now because of the sticky vinyl tiles I just remove. I was thinking to clean it with pain Thinner, but I think the smell will be bad. Any idea how to clean it please?
Thank you
