With the really heavy frosts we are having i've noticed that the pointing in certain areas of my patio ( been laid just over 12 months ) has what appears to be blown, or at least the surface has, what is the best way to overcome this? i appreciate i will have to remove the damaged pointing but what do to the new mixture to ensure it won't happen again

Thanks

Alan
