    About a year ago I put down the foundations for my garage. I completed as far as the finished floor.
    When panning the finished foot it was a very wet evening.
    A year later and I got the funds 2continue but some of the finished floor in a few areas the top layer has lifted and crumbled. Now the floor is uneven.
    Is there anything that I could get when I have it roofed that I could get that would make the floor smooth again? Is there anything like a liquid cement that I could put a 4 r 5mm layer on the floor?

    Self levelling compound will sort out the the finish.

    You may need to do something with the existing concrete first though depending on how bad it is. If it is crumbling then any finish you apply will fall off.

    Drop in to a builders providers near to you. They will have anything you need in stock and should be able to advise you on the concrete.

    Most of the usual levelling compounds are not intended to be durable enough to be a finished floor (i.e. no floor covering) so be careful to get the appropriate one.
