The paving joints are then completely filled without the need to kneel down and compress the grout into the joints by hand, saving your back and saving time! If the joints cannot gain full exposure to air, sometimes the top will crust over (from evaporation) but the lower section of the joint may not cure properly.

However, the sand element of EASYJoint is a natural product mined from quarries and shades can vary.

Our instructions state that any sagging of a joint must be topped up whilst it is still wet (or has not cured). Apply a final gentle spray of water across the surface towash off any EASYJoint residue and to aid the final compaction process.This will assist in checking for low spots whilst ensuring the joints are uniformly below the surface of the paving. However we can say that its predecessors, earlier derivatives of the current product, have been in use for more than 20 years and where the ground conditions are stable and a good sub-base has been employed, they have stood the test of time - much longer in most instances than a cement alternative. If heavy or prolonged rain is forecast, it is ideal to wait for drier conditions as heavy rain may disturb sand particles in the EASYJoint mix before it cures solid, giving an uneven texture. Use lots of water when using the jointing grout and any linseed oil will sit on top of it and get washed away! Every natural stone or brick paved area will come with the annual chore of weeding to keep it looking its best.

Slipbond has been formulated with extended workability for fixing brick slips and natural stone to a range of substrates. EASY Joint resists weed growth however, sometimes the joints trap dirt at the surface as the water drains through it making them dirty. Porous or textured tiles/slabs may require sealing before grouting with a suitable impregnating sealer. Using small quantities of EASYJoint, simultaneously spread and wash the compound across the surface using a light jet of water and a broom/squeegee, allowing it to fall into the joints. Watch the video demonstration above to review the comprehensive information provided in the EASYJoint section.Start once the paving has dried and the joints are drained, applying virtually no pressure to the tool - it is only to finish the joint, not compress it. This ensures the top of the filler is below the top rounded edge of the paving and helps it adhere to the base and sides of the paving material.

Never allow EASY Joint to pile up in clumps or allow the paving to dry with any remaining grout on its surface. Opened tubs of EASYJoint, if not fully used, can be kept for later use providing they are covered by a minimum of 2″ (50mm) or more of water.We also sell a range of fast set, flowable concrete that is ideal for setting or repairing steps, kerbs, fence posts, mailbox posts, decking posts, lamp posts, and ideal for setting equipment such as playground furniture. Use more EASY Joint to top up any low spots in your joints, repeating the washing process as described previously.
