Rick, Thanks for the question I should have answered to begin with.

Then I realized that you had really gave the group a challenge. I've been thinking about the problem and believe the first thing we need to know, is how you're planning to use the area. If you're considering it as a living area, you would want a better quality floor and a better barrier from the soil. If you're not going to use it as a living area, I can imagine some possible alternative floors. ----- Original Message ----- From: Tom Vos To: [email protected] <mailto:blindhandyman%40yahoogroups.com> Sent: Tuesday, May 18, 2010 7:43 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Putting in a basement floor Are there any alternatives for a basement floor other than concrete? We have a room in the basement with a dirt floor. It's not very usable that way, but to get concrete down there will be tough. There are no windows, so concrete would have to be hauled through the entry and kitchen and down the stairs. Or we could carry bags of Redi Mix, but it's going to take a whale of a lot of bags to do the room. It's only about 12 feet square, but that's a lot of lugging. Any ideas?
