Self levelling compound, 2 small areas

[britishboy7]

I have 2 small areas in the lounge (concrete floor in the extension, approx 15 years old) that need filling where wall was removed for some wider doors to be fitted. The area to fill are approx 65xm x 20cm and about 3-4cm deep.

Is it just a case of mix some up and pour it in? Should i let the mix run up to the newly fitted door fame or put sometihng inbetween it? And is there a preferred brand and method

Thanks guys

Sand and cement will do for such a small area if you have it.

Thanks Woody, should I let it set right up to/touching bifold door frame?

Yeah, I can't see why not. Remember to dampen the holes first.

Remember to dampen the holes first.

You should always dampen any hole before proceeding.
