Hi,
I’ve recently outsourced the rip-out and refinish of my lounge diner to a builder as after five years of working in my house I’m frankly getting tired.
Part of this was the re-screeing of the concrete floor owing to it being uneven and a parquet (spl?) floor going in.
I’ve never done such a job so have no comparison, but three days after it being laid by the chap I’ve put my faith and money in it’s an uneven colour, with the creamy areas being highly viscous and slippy (so I found this morning when tentatively stepping on it and going down hard), and the grey being mildly powdery.
More importantly, whilst the pronounced bend of the floor with the middle higher than the edges that was there has gone, when I run my hands over it, there are noticeable lumps and bumps.
Have I been had?
Is this normal?
I thought self levelling kind of well, self levelled.
NB, the original floor was cross crossed with black swirls of bitumen adhesive, so any visible grey is scree not old floor.
