Urgent: Sanding a concrete floor

[bertson]

Hi Folks,


I urgently need to remove a ridge from the centre of a recently laid concrete floor in a new house. ( have a tiler coming on sunday).

Are you able to hire a Concrete sander from most tool hire places??
If so, do i just ask for a Concrete sander


Note: floor leveling compound is too late at this stage
Oboviously, my contractor will be reembursing me for my outlay

Cheers
B

You can get a concrete floor grinder which will smooth it out, just be careful not to overdo it or the floor will be very polished and loose some of the mechanical key required for bonding tiles.
