I put an 18"x18" hole in my garage when I poured the concrete floor. In the hole, near the top I've got 3" PVC drain pipe. As a separate pour, I put concrete in the bottom of the hole. My plan is to put a PCC elbow, pointing down, so water accumulating in the hole will drain out once it reaches a certain level. Any dirt or stones will sit in the bottom and won't clog the drain. So, basically I've got a recessed 18"x18" concrete hole in my garage that'll hold water until the water is about 2" deep, then it'll drain out.
My question is, how do I seal concrete so it'll hold water? It's below the surface of the floor, under a grate, so I really don't care what it looks like...I just want it to be water tight. What's the best product to use? Is there some way to "rubberize" it?
