Hello!
(mistake in the subject, it is of course garage floor and not basement floor but apparently, I can't edit the subject line)
I have damage on the floor by the garage door that I now need to fix before replacing the garage door with a new overhead door. The plan is to chip away the previous repair and an additional part of the floor to create a durable solution.
So I'm simply wondering how to do this in the best way...

- How much do you think I need to chip away for it to hold? I will pour with a slope from the inner wall out towards the driveway (about 10 cm with a 1 cm slope).
- Do I need to chip away the full depth of the slab or is it enough to go down about 10 cm (if that's the depth)?
- How far into the garage do I need to chip away?
- What type of concrete is best if you don't want it to shrink (to avoid level differences) but still hold well?

How did you finally do it?
