Hi everyone
So i have layed my own patio over the past few months while being at home on furlough as a novice doing it I struggled with laying and mixing cement at the same time along with putting to much cement down and it squishing out between slabs resulting in me having to get the slab back up clean remove cement from the perimeter and relay.
Anyway it's down now looks good and I'm on to the grouting stage I'm using sika fast fix grouting my worry is some of the gaps between the slabs don't seem to have much cement between them and I feel that the sika tub is not gonna go far at all?
Can I put a dry cement mix down the gaps just to fill it out before the sika or is there another way of doing it?
Cheers
