Concrete Fixing

When they poured the foundation, they must have poured additional cement because the 2x4 walls in the basement around the stairs are sunken into the concrete. So, when I cut back the stair wall it left a section that needed filling in. Also the concrete around the existing door opening wasn't completely level. So enters the purchase of a demolition hammer. Renting one apparently costs around $100, but I found a highly rated one on Amazon for just $150. I decided it was worth a shot. Turned out to be a good bet and I was highly impressed it worked so well.
The before. Can see where the 2x4 wall was, but not really the bump.

After the chiseling away with the demo hammer.

Concrete poured and all flat!
