This concrete floor pour was under a house in the basement. The code enforcement officer wanted styrofoam under the floor and up the walls. This seems a little crazy but it's what we're dealing with a lot more now.
There's ledge rock all over the place in this basement under the floor. Some of it was too high to cover up with a flat floor so we had to try and cover it with concrete the way it was.
Pumping the concrete was our only option for pouring the concrete floor. It really made pouring quite easy as you'll see.

That's going to be a well-conditioned basement! Tuff-R is closed-cell foam panels, which shouldn't be confused with the lesser Styrofoam pink sheets. Nice job on the concrete, but it's very strange (on a new house) that the basement floor wasn't poured before the sill plates were laid.
Is that a bedrock in the corner of the basement?!? Still very good working around it 😃, all the foam insulation cold in Maine.
"Can't believe theres no poly under here?" Understatement of the day. Guess this is "just a cottage". My house was built in 1966. Sure wish the idiots used poly in my basement. Dad had to at least install drainage under the floor the night before they poured. Things we learn over time and things people do to save a couple hundred bucks now.
Wow. That is some seriously wet concrete.
This is one of the strangest things I've ever seen. I've heard of it being code to have this stuff up the walls and on the floor AFTER the concrete is poured.. but before?!
It is code in most northern zones. What are you talking about after... Somebody has zero construction knowledge.
What is the hump in the back corner? A boulder too big to move or jackhammer out? Great work!
spooky area, i guess that "extra" yard did his finish leveling, so nothing left.
Man you guys are like a symphony. So why do you kick your legs and feet back like that when you’re screeting? Both guys do it like to beat of a drum. So cool.
Pump job woah unheard of for you haha nice work
The wall insulation is Code here in New York State. You can put it on the inside or outside, or you can stud the basement walls and insulate. The floor isn’t required here “Yet”. But I have never seen this type of foam board used under the floor, only blue board. I didn’t think you could use that type of insulation with ground contact. Maybe you can,Idk?
The foam is a great thermal break
In VA I just had a 24' x 30' garage floor poured and the back 1/4 of the floor was poured with the first truck, then we waited 2 hours for the next truck and the first concrete was already stiff and made a terrible joint with the new concrete, Even after power troweling, it looked like crap. The concrete guy didn't use any relief lines and said it may look bad, but structurally the job was fine so I shouldn't complain. Did he cut corners and do a bad pour or is it just me being picky?
snap a chaulk line on the wall, make it way easier for all...
How far out are you booking? I’m gonna give you a call to pour the concrete for a house I’m planning in Manchester ME
I saw a code enforcement inspector almost get an ass whooping one day.
He was backed into his car backwards about 200 yards with a finger in his face the entire way.
Making up building code as he felt
INSULATED CONCRETE FORMS
I would think this floor will crack soon after the pour because the styrofoam will move.
Shit so wet should have just added little more water and it would have self leveled
Not crazy at all it’s basic thermodynamics and the best money spent. You will love it to break that thermal conduction with the ground. No different than sleeping pad when camping. Real shame you didn’t WWM and strap radiant heat before the pour. Keep it all domestic and it could be looped through Hot Water heater. Did it, done it, love it. Only btch was from brother when he hand trowel joints to look like 4 ft x 4 ft tile. Acid stain finish and you off n running
It's not code enforcement, it's code.
If you know how to read you’d see he was talking about the code enforcement officer.
Mike… did you get any air bubbles in the concrete when finishing?
It’s out gassing from a chemical reaction between the aluminium foil on the insulation and wet cement! 😉
No we didn't
