Thank you for bringing this issue to light and letting us know what it's called. Our new concrete steps look pitted on the sides and bits are cracking off at the bottom. I knew something wasn't right. Two of the steps have soil and bark next to them. Does moisture aggravate this problem? Any advice is helpful.

No its generally caused from not being vibrated when cast at that location.

I’m having a similar issue with a cantilevered swimming pool ledge. The contractor can not seem to fix it properly. Will this technique work for that application also?

Wondering whether Quikrete's product will adhere to previously coated surface. I have a minor cosmetic honeycomb area at corner of my concrete house foundation. Thanks!

They make a fiber reinforced variety that is supposed to adhere directly to block/ concrete. I'm about to try it right now. Never done concrete work and this is a 36"x28" opening. Hope it does well.

Hey how would you go about fixing all walls in a basement that are like this as well as corner pops and cracks/holes ?

Same method, although i've heard some say after the cleaning step to spray water on the wall to keep it from sucking all the moisture from the patching cement

Same method for pops or holes. I noticed in the comments you said it was painted, so that would definitely need to be stripped back. A blasting medium would be most likely best. However for cracks, if they're serious they'll need a special compound injected to seal the crack.

That honeycombing wouldn't comprise the structural integrity of the concrete at all. You should see bridges on the highways prior to rubbing and patching.
@homesforbeginners2 жыл бұрын
You're contradicting yourself with that comment. There is a reason bridges are patched. Honeycombing in an extreme situation can pool in water, if frozen it can cause the concrete the break apart further. Honeycombing also has the potential to expose rebar, this leads to rusting and again jeopardizes the structural integrity.

You’re a little hard on your man for not being a professional because of a little honey comb. Looks like he did a good job on the concrete

As someone who has had professional construction experience and for being a shallow area, its unacceptable. But I guess it's easy to have an opinion when you're not paying for it.

Most of what you were repairing was actually a cold joint, which is very suspicious with a slab of that type. Was there a long delay between concrete trucks. Also by the large yet still small micro pitting the mud was poured too tight.
