more than already

Are these 2 sentences correctly phrased?

I don't want to scratch the table more than it already is. Put a placemat underneath.
I'm not going to put more of a damper on/cast more of a pall over evening than I've already.

Thanks

You cannot use the contraction "I've" when no main verb is present with it.
