I'm about to repoint/rejoint (or whatever you call it) 450x450 concrete slabs with tapered sides (11mm down to 3mm gaps, c25mm deep) and the area is 35sqm. Easy Joint was one of the few compounds that would work with gaps of 3mm. I've cleared out all the old jointing and am ready to go. I've calculated I'll need about 4x12.5kg of Easy Joint.

I can get it (4 tubs) on Amazon for £125 incl delivery though I've also tried to source locally but looking on Google hardly anyone stocks it or at least it's not listed as being stocked which seems weird?! Only Topps Tiles had any according to their website.

Before I pull the trigger on ordering Easy Joint is there a cheaper and equally reliable alternative for brush in compounds?

Cheaper very, very rarely means better wen it comes to these polymeric jointing compounds. You really do get what you pay for!

Got you, worth asking though but think you are right.
