    Just done 25m2 using Joint It mate, piss easy to use just slightly expensive. I’ll send you some photos on instagram 👍🏼

      Yeh I thought it was easy too and definitely not as messy as slurry grout and didn’t need any hazing cleaning either 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

    Looks good but not sure how it will hold up over time. At least with the slury stuff like flow point you know the mix is getting right down into all the gaps between the pavers and not just floating on top.

      I’ve seen a video of a high pressure washer blasting a piece of 4x4 post rips it to bits them over the grout and didn’t budge a inch 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

    Just done my patio with this. 40 sqm with the manual gun was a killer on the old hands but so stress free. You dont even have to scrape it for the most part, the excess just peels off. TIDY 👌

    Hi, I’m new to your channel and have been viewing a number of your videos. Thanks for the effort and time, I know it is hard word producing them but information presented is invaluable, particular to us DIYs.
    I’m looking at laying down porcelain slabs 40sqm and all the discussion regarding grout choice is interesting. The suppliers of the slabs recommend Joint-it. How do you think it compares to staintec you posted a few months before this vid? What would be your grout of choice?

    • @tidybrickslandscaping
      @tidybrickslandscaping  7 місяців тому

      For the DIY’er I’d say steintec as it’s no fuss but the grout does settle slightly but no big deal glad I’ve been of help 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

      The joints need to be dry for a starter and it’s definitely not stressful you could do it in the middle of a hot summers day 30+ degrees no problem try that with another type of slurry grout 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

    This stuff is a nightmare if conditions arent perfect, even had the rep telling us all the faults with the product earlier. If the temp is below 8 degrees, don't even bother with the stuff. So it's useless through all winter in the UK. Stick to an epoxy brush in. Also, there is a lot of excessive waste. If you added up all the scrapings, you could do another patio. And the electric guns wear out very quickly. 2 jobs and joint it have already replaced it as the motor burned out.

    • @adamtucker117
      @adamtucker117 8 місяців тому

      Uk here, type 1 or scalps would be preferred as long as they're compacted well. Helps with setting the levels and draining water if the grout is permeable or there is imperfections. On a concrete base, moss and mould will grow easier and any imperfections in the jointing or laying will simply blow the jointing out or get under the slab. Water always finds a way
