Sections of our old poured concrete floor need repair and levelling. I've broken up an area about 2 square yards by 1 - 2 inches deep and I'm planning to use Sakrete Quick Set (www.king-products.com) to fill it. There is dirt and occasionally large pebbles in the hole. Do I need to dig down a couple more inches and fill the bottom with crushed rock before pouring in the concrete? Or can I just pour it into the hole over the dirt?
