How to fix hole in floor?
I took off my floor board in my kitchen and I uncovered a big hole/
crack in the middle of kitchen floor. They are a couple poles in the floor part on the concrete flooring. Is this something to worry about? How can I fix the hole in the floor? Will cement be appropriate? If so what type of cement is appropriate for a floor? What the procedure for fixing the problem.? Additional Details 1) Is it a concrete floor that you are worried about? Yes partially. 2) Is it a hole or a crack? A hole 3) Is the kitchen on a ground floor with a solid floor underneath or on a higher floor with rooms underneath? The kitchen is on a ground floor with a solid floor underneath. |

If the hole's an inch or more across & deep, a 3:1 sand:cement mix should fill it fine. Much smaller hole and the mix may break up. NT |

Any idea what caused it? Is theholecausing any problems, i.e. why are you wanting to fix it? -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] no, the hole is not causing any problem. it just ugly to look at and to preventing it causing any further problem. |
