Treat this project in the same way you would using cement. You’ll want decent gloves and make sure that all skin and eyes are protected. This isn’t particularly toxic but be careful and use common sense to keep yourself safe. To the letter of the rule HSE.GOV says that we should use waterproof trousers, masks, gloves, and appropriate footwear such as wellington boots. Dig out the old grout It also forms a solid joint that resists weed and plant growth, yet is permeable allowing water to escape to prevent ponding. Paving, Pointing & Grouting We offer a range of pointing and grouting materials for jointing your patio slabs, outdoor paving or driveway including flowable slurry grouts such as UltraScape Flowpoint, brush-in grouts like EasyJoint and gun injected mortar for fine pointing. As well as supplying paving primer, sealants and paving and driveway cleaners. GEO-FIX is supplied ready to use and does not require any further mixing or addition of other materials. Ensure that the paving to be jointed is dry and free from loose dirt, oil, debris and grease etc. In areas subject to vehicular traffic it is essential that the paving elements are bedded on a class 1 mortar and a high percentage of the mortar is squeezed up the joint, thereby providing support for the paving elements.
If you have an ant problem this isn’t a bad shout. Most of the ranges reviewed in this article work but Sika Pave Fix Plus Buff make a point of advertising this specific compound as resistant to ants. It’s super annoying watching an army of ants pushing up sand from your patio and well worth dealing with the problem as soon as possible. All the patio grouts I’ve recommended are specifically made for ease of use. I’ve only selected premixed grouts, and most can be applied single handedly with just a brush. Some products, like the EASYJoint Paving Grout require the paving to be kept wet during application. The best patio grouts can be applied in various weather conditions , including rain. This makes them easier to apply as you don’t need to wait for a dry day. I also recommend looking for grout that can be applied in various temperatures , from as low as 5°C. Sponge Machines & Ancillaries We supply a range of indoor & outdoor sponge machines from Refina & Berta which are suitable for cleaning epoxy & cement grouts such as UltraScape Flowpoint from quarry tiles, external paving slabs, natural stone and granite setts. Our range of sponge machines protects the joints between paving slabs by avoiding washing away the cement, whilst the machine removes the need for individuals to wash away grout on their hands and knees.

This is a relatively new product and I’m always apprehensive to bring in new products but this is worth a shout especially since they know exactly what they are up to: Geo-Fix All Weather is ready mixed and can simply be brushed into joints with minimal effort compared to using traditional mortar. Geo-Fix All Weather is easily finished by compacting with a pointing tool and used on joint widths of min 6mm and a minimum of 25mm deep. It also forms a solid joint that resists weed and plant growth, yet is permeable allowing water to escape to prevent ponding. Best patio grout overall: Sika FastFix All Weather Self-Setting Paving Jointing Compound, Buff, 15 kg – 20 sq.m Superb value for money – Sika is a choice for many professionals.
The Bostik Easy To Use Patio Grout can simply be brushed into the paving joints for an aesthetic and hard-wearing finish that stands the test of time. Patio or paving grout, is a mixture used to fill the gaps between paving slabs or tiles. Grout is used both on patios and in between bathroom/kitchen tiles. It can be used for laying a new patio, or repairing an existing patio. The jointing should not be cleaned by use of high pressure washers until cured for 7 days. The distance between nozzles to jointing must be at least 10cm. The mix is combined with water and applied into the joints. The downside is that the weather has to be very dry, as moisture on your patio may lead to staining. After mixing all three components together, the grout can be applied to the joints using a squeegee or brush.Any residue left on the surface when cured can be simply cleaned off by sweeping with a stiff brush. Material or residue that has been left exposed for more than 30 minutes should NOT be used, as it will be adversely affected. Tiling Adhesives & Grouts We offer a range of tiling adhesives, grouts & silicone for installing porcelain, glass, cement, marble, mosaic, granite and limestone tiles securely to your walls. Our tile adhesives and grouts are heat, mould and water resistant and perfect for fitting tiles in your bathroom or kitchen. The jointing compound wants a 3mm gap (no problem if much larger like 10mm) and in their example they want to highlight an inch depth, despite being a new install, they will still want you to go an inch down on your old patio – this is pretty much the standard and whilst it never guarantees you hold weeds and insects at bay, you give yourself the best possible chance!
