Suitable for all types of paving material, this easy-to-use product is strong enough to resist the elements and stand the test of time, making it much more effective than traditional jointing methods. Though we produce the products of choice for professional landscapers, our range is increasingly popular with DIYers, gardeners and homeowners too. Less water is needed when applying EASYJoint to porcelain paving, as there is little risk of residue staining. You will find that a small amount of water, added to form it into a slurry, will make it easier to fill the joints properly. When applying to porcelain, to ensure an effective joint, the operator MUST strike the joint off, to compact the grout fully. Compaction forces out air and water which helps the joint harden faster. Sealing is particularly recommended for porous paving slabs and setts prior to laying and jointing with EASYJoint, to reduce the risk of staining or efflorescence. If sealer is applied after the patio has been laid, do not apply any type of sealer over the joint for at least a month after it has set hard. Only use a breathable sealer, otherwise EASY Joint may or may not remain permeable, and you may seal in any natural efflorescence passing through the stone. These natural salts will disperse over time. Can you apply EASYJoint in freezing conditions?

EASYJoint Select is an all-year-round jointing compound. The new colours have been designed to complement emerging hard landscaping trends for a more aesthetically pleasing finish, featuring Tungsten and Carbon. Very fast to use: The use of water to wash and fill the joints between the paving is a breakthrough in jointing methodology. It assists the paving grout to compact into the joints so there is no need to 'strike' or 'tool' the joints unless you want a smooth finish. 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. A single 12.5Kg Tub of EASYJoint will cover approximately the following areas of paving* Paving Size (mm)

EASYJoint can be installed dry, however to use this method the paving must be sealed at least 2 - 3 days before the EASYJoint application. The paving slabs must be sealed on five sides (the top and four edges). When applying dry, EASYJoint compound must be compressed, by striking off with a pointing tool into the joints as it will not self-compact in the same way it does when applied with water. EASYJoint can be applied in virtually any weather conditions, however it is best practice to ensure that ground temperatures are greater than 3 degrees during the grout installation.
