How long should I wait before laying concrete paving stones on a freshly poured concrete slab? I intend to use 1:8 Moist Mix. Will the concrete curing process affect the drying time of the Moist Mix?

Thank you.

48 hours should be sufficient. Why didn't you just use a cement free sub base?

Thank you for your helpful response. This is a fantastic site and a great service.

To answer your question, the owner believes that a concrete slab will increase the resale value of the property more than would a cement free sub base....
