In a Southport residential building, part of a unit’s floor slab needed repairing. With the old floor opened up beside the balcony door, the original reinforcing was exposed, and there were chases cut through the slab that had to be filled.
I repaired the slab and filled and patched the chases so the floor was solid again and ready for the next stage of the job.
How I repair a damaged floor slab
- Open the floor up and see how far the damage goes.
- Break out loose or failed concrete back to sound material.
- Clean the exposed reinforcing and the edges before patching.
- Fill chases and repairs with a suitable repair mortar or concrete.
- Finish flush so the floor is ready for the next trade.
