Can a concrete floor be damaged and subsequently repaired?
A concrete floor though very hard and durable is not completely invincible. A floor can be damaged, for example, should someone hit the floor with a chisel. Sometimes, particularly if a slab was poured incorrectly with too wet a mix, a piece of aggregate (small stone) may become dislodged from the finished surface after a certain amount of time.
