Repairs to concrete floor

best to dig out any damage/holes/cracks to a min depth of say 12/25mm before you cement em in.
cement in a thin layer is rarely any good.
Agree with this approach , but while you're at it , you may as well try to make the repair last as long as possible. So recommend a 50mm (sharp sand and cement 4:1) minimum thickness and coat existing with PVA for better adhesion.Forgotten but not gone.0 -
