Wet the Paving. Thoroughly soak the patio or paved area to be jointed with lots of water using a hose. The paving must be absolutely saturated before starting and remain soaked throughout the application process ‘the wetter, the better.’ We strongly recommend not shortcutting this process, particularly when working with absorbent or sensitive materials such as Sandstone, Granite and Limestone. Highly absorbent and porous stone will require sealing, 2-3 days prior to laying, on its top surface and four edges.

With thin paving it is difficult to achieve 25mm depth. To achieve it, create a channel in the base material by running the tip of a trowel around the exposed edges of each paver to create 25mm depth for EASYJoint to sit in (see illustration above). CHAMFERED PAVING (Paving with ‘V’ Joints) Both the bedding and sub-base must be permeable. When using a mortar bedding mix, this should be no stronger than 6:1 (sharp sand: cement). Be careful when using add-mixtures such as SBR or PVA as these can seriously affect the permeability of a mortar mix.

When it comes to using EASYJoint, there isn't much landscaping experience or special skill required; although we would recommend you work with someone else, as this job is quite hands-on! Simply ensure you have a working hose pipe, a good quality sweeping brush and ideally a pointing tool, to finish the joints off. Step 1

The result of using EASYJoint, to joint your paving, will be a paving gap that is completely filled without the need for kneeling and compressing the material by hand that will last for years. A strong joint that will resist the elements and stand the test of time - better than traditional jointing methods.All of our jointing products come individually or on a pallet which can be easily placed into a van or into a garden using a hiab lorry. Some concrete paving is made in moulds and has chamfered edges creating a 'V' shaped joint between two paving slabs, wider at the top than at the bottom. This gap shape can be the most challenging to work with and we recommend you carefully follow the instructions below. As a professional-grade jointing compound, EASYJoint Pro’s strength and tolerance to water make it ideal for driveways, commercial areas, areas with poor drainage and swimming pool terraces.

Although not strictly necessary with most paving grouts, sealing slabs prior to using EASYJoint Pro will ensure that any salts or residue that may be drawn up through the mortar bed are limited, and also any shiny residue does not appear on the face of the slabs due to the epoxy resin in the compound. The risk of not sealing is that you may end up with a picture frame of stains around the edge of your paving slabs, or patchy efflorescence.
