Hi sorry for what some of you will think is a simple question but I'm struggling to find a definite answer on this site or in fact all over the internet. I have laid 20sqm of indian sandstone using a 6 to 1 full bed how long should i wait before walking on it and how long before the mortar will be hard? Thanks in advance for any answers

The minimum period is 24 hours. This info *is* given on the main website - final paragraph.

However, 3 days is better and I wouldn't be putting any furniture or heavy usage on to it for the first 72 hours as a minimum.
