Concrete Floor Repair

[Tim Blank]

Hi,
I need to patch up some holes in a concrete floor prior to it being
carpeted. Can anyone advise what I should be using in the way of sand /
cement to do this and the best mix to use?

Thanks

If the screed is MOVING where its cracked, put gallons of thinned PVA
into the crack before you adjust it cosmetically and surface wise. Leave
a week to dry out. Its worth PVA'ing the areas you intend to patch
anyway to reduce 'suck' when you re-surface.

Personally tile cement and self levelling compound make the best finish
- the sand is finer in these..
