hi
i've got a few slabs left over from doing my patio so want to lay some slabs outside my front door. i've lifted the old slabs to reveal a good condition concrete base which i will lay onto.
if i'm using sharp sand/cement what's the thinest bed i can lay on as i don't want to bring it up too high. the old slabs have just been laid on 10mm building sand cement.
Thinest base for sandstone slabs

that sounds good i've probably got about 25-30mm max to play with as the sandstone is thinner than the current slabs but i have a manhole etc that i need to slab upto. and yes i'll be using a bond bridge, thanks for your help!lutonlagerlout wrote:assuming grit sand and cement with a bond bridge and SBR in the wet mix around 10-12 mm
I have used this on preformed concrete steps before
just need the flags to be very flat
