Cover with straw and/or hessian for first 48 hours.
Use a frostproofer sparingly in the bedding mortar
The good 2-part resin mortars all need 3°C and rising as a minimum, but the jointing can wait until we have a couple of warmer days, if necessary. THe VDW 850+ is, IMHO, the best 2-part mortar on the market just now - Read More - and by quite some way!
