A firesafe concrete subfloor makes you and your family feel safe and secure. It guards your prized possessions. ¢ Every 2 minutes a house burns--and ‘over half of these fires start in the basement. Concrete subfloors are the key to a firesafe home because they check the upward sveep of flames.

Concrete subfloors are also strong and rigid and stay permanently firm and level. That means no sagging, squeaking or shaking; no jammed doors, no furniture rocking on three legs. And concrete sube floors make a perfect base for any covering: harde \wood, carpeting,}1inoleum,§tile or terrazao,
