Some sort of plaster to smooth over a concrete kitchen floor . . ?

[lucycherish]

as you have probably gathered i dont really know what i am looking for but i will give an explanation as to what happened so HOPEFULLY some one will be able to help me, we had a dog..which ate the lino in the kitchen :@ and then he started scratching at the floor and bits of plaster (thats what im guessing it is because it looks like ) where chipping away from the floor to reveal just a rough concrete floor, what i want to know is what exactly do i used to put over the concrete to smooth it out so i can lay lino again and where can i get the product from? any help would be brilliant! thank you x

agree with the builder-as long as its not too deep

the dog must have done a lot of scratching to have done that

Hi
It's not plaster .. that is for walls.
It's a cement screed layer over the original concrete 'slab' (as they call it)
Get yourself to B&Q .. and buy a bag of latex levelling filler (smaller amount) ... you probably only need a bit!

There are better more proffesional treatments, but I think that will do what you need. Make sure it is dry .. and scratched out/hoovered before you mix and level it. You want to mix like runny custard.

I would have said the Wickes stufff .. but the bag amounts are a bit over the top for what the lady needs!

Thank you all it is only a thin layer on top of the concrete and a few patches that he scratched out x

hate to be a pain but does anyone know of where i could get a smaller amount from? x
