What to know about Concrete floors
Interior concrete floors are two very different projects wearing the same name. One is finishing a slab that already exists, usually in a basement, a garage conversion or a slab-on-grade house, and the work is grinding, repairing and sealing what is there. The other is designing concrete as the finished floor of a new space, where the pour, the flatness, the joint layout and the color are decided months before anyone thinks about the surface.

Prices depend on the details of your project. We only publish price ranges when they’re backed by real LokalMatch quote data or reliable sources. Until then, here’s what usually changes the price:
- Floor area and the number of rooms
- Type and grade of flooring
- Removal of the existing floor
- Subfloor repairs or levelling
- Stairs, angles and custom cuts
- Trim, transitions and baseboards
How to choose concrete floor contractors in Portland
- Choose an installer who works regularly with the type of flooring you want, since hardwood, tile, vinyl and carpet each need different skills.
- Ask them to check the subfloor and moisture levels before giving a final price.
- Get a written quote that covers removal of the old floor, subfloor prep, underlay, trim and transitions.
- Ask whether you or the installer will supply the flooring, and who is responsible for ordering extra for waste.
- Look at recent work in person or in photos, paying attention to seams, edges and transitions.
Questions to ask concrete floor contractors before you hire
- Will you remove and dispose of the old flooring?
- How will you check and prepare the subfloor?
- Is my space suitable for this type of flooring, especially in a basement, kitchen or bathroom?
- Are baseboards, transitions and stair nosings included?
- Will you move the furniture and appliances, or should I?
- Does your workmanship warranty cover problems like lifting, gaps or cracked tiles?
Concrete floor permits in Portland
Some concrete floor work needs a permit or has to meet local bylaws. Rules vary by municipality, so ask your pro whether a permit is needed and who will apply for it — and check with your city or town if you’re unsure.

Flooring failures in American homes are rarely about the product being cheap. They are about moisture and about what the floor was asked to sit on.

A hardwood floor in an American home spends its life reacting to the air around it. Wood takes on moisture and gives it back, so the same oak plank behaves differently in a Minneapolis house that runs dry all winter, a…

Hardwood Refinishing guide
Refinishing is the reason a hardwood floor is worth owning. The layer you walk on is sacrificial, and a floor that looks finished for good can usually be taken back to bare wood and started over.

Is LokalMatch free for homeowners?

How many pros will contact me?
We introduce you to a small number of relevant pros — usually no more than three — so you’re not flooded with calls. If fewer pros are available in your area, we’ll tell you instead of promising quotes we can’t deliver.
Do I have to hire someone?
No. Requesting quotes doesn’t commit you to anything. Compare your options and hire only if someone is the right fit.
