How do I repair small dips after installation?

Noticed a few small dips or shallow low spots in your new resin floor? These can often be corrected effectively without redoing your entire surface, with some simple techniques and the right materials.

Assessing and Preparing the Area

Begin by allowing your resin floor to fully cure. Attempting repairs on a surface that has not hardened properly can lead to further issues. Once cured, clean the affected dip to remove any dirt or loose debris. If the dip is deep, very lightly scuff or abrade the area to improve adhesion for the patching material.

Mixing and Applying the Patch

To fill small dips, prepare a mix of compatible resin and matching aggregate. It’s important to use the same type of resin and aggregate as your original floor for a seamless repair. Carefully blend the materials and use a spatula or trowel to press the patch into the dip, smoothing it level with the surrounding area. For coloured or decorative surfaces, a product like “Trasparente” – Epoxy Binder for Coloured Pebbles and Grits can help maintain a clear, uniform appearance.

Finishing and Aftercare

Allow the repaired area to cure fully before any use—refer to your resin’s instructions for specific times. After curing, check for flatness and gently sand if a further level adjustment is needed. Routine cleaning and spot checks will help maintain a consistently smooth surface on your resin floor.

When Perfect Levelling Matters

Repairing dips quickly is particularly important in outdoor spaces where pooling water or tripping hazards may develop. Timely maintenance preserves both function and appearance.
