Upon reading the instructions, it says that you need to soak the area before applying the paving jointing compound, and to then use a pointing trowel to apply the product between the gaps within the paving slabs. As well as this, if you have any left over then to keep in water as this will give it a life span of approximately 1 month. Sika FastFix All Weather is a ready-to-use, self-setting paving jointing compound with Active Resin Technology for advanced durability. It sets hard and will not wash out, whilst remaining water permeable. Sika FastFix All Weather is perfect for outdoor patios, pavements and paths with joints over 5mm wide and 20mm deep.

Use Sika FastFix® All Weather in small manageable amounts. Avoid spreading over a large area before application. Ensure material is all loose by raking through. Do not try to break up and use any small set lumps. Do not add any extra sand. I jet washed this out using a Karthcha Power Wash and then refilled all joints using Sika. At first, I thought our stones had changed colour but it was an illusion due to having a cream compound in the joints compared to a much darker colour where no compound existed at all. I followed the instructions to the letter. It took a long time and I worked in subsections to make sure I compacted it thoroughly.

As a hole, it’s well worth using and we have continued to use it since this job. Until we receive a bad review from a customer then we have no issues using this product. But until next year comes, I won’t know how it stands up against jet washing your patio etc., which is when the real test comes in to place so I will update the post when the time comes. Highly water permeable – no pooling on the patio Weed control – provides a natural barrier for weed growth

How ever, don’t just sweep it in between the gaps. At the very least use a pointing trowel to make sure that it is well compacted. It is also worth noting that all of the pictures in this post are patios that we have installed using this product!

Once we had finished pointing the new patio we decided to give it a very light sprinkle to make sure that it would set. Again we had never used this product before so wanted to be sure that it would do the job. The benefits of using the Sika paving jointing compound Welcome to Hankintech!

Do you have any recommendations for the holes they have created already? Should I just top it up and try to stop them coming out? 🙂
