The house I have just moved into has a patio that's in good condition apart from lots of areas where the pointing is missing from between the slabs.
Am I right in thinking that I can mix the sand and cement dry and pour it dry into the gaps? Then, go over with a watering can to add water to the mix?
Being ham-fisted, if I try to re-point with a wet mortar mixture and a trowel it will be a right mess.
If I can use the dry method, what sand/cement mix do I need? Any other advice appreciated.
