filling holes in concrete floor before carpet!!

[atomic123]

Hi All,

Having carpet fitted in living room on Wednesday (its saturday night now). Just working on finishing off little bits and pieces and realised there are a few (maybe 4-5 ) holes in the concrete floor.
The holes range from 10mm at deepest (but generally 3mm) and 75mm to 50mm diameter..

What suggestions does anyone have for filling. Is there something I can buy which will set quick enough....
Any help appreciated as always.

Hi Chris, try to find a local flooring stockist and try to buy ardex A45 rapid repair motar or similar. That can go on deep and dries quick.

Hi Daz,

Many thanks for the info.

I went to b&q today and bought the "Sikadur Epoxy Repair Kit" Looks similar to the one you recommended..
Am going to give it a try tonight. Fingers crossed!

Do you think this will be ok? or would you recommend the one in last post as better... ?

Hi Christine

Never seen that before but should be ok. It won't have to be perfect if carpet is the floor covering.
Might be hard to use having epoxy in it.
Have a read of the instructions to see how long you have to work with it?
Vacuum out the holes so they are dust free before you use it.
