Hi All,
The site has been really helpful but i think i need a bit more guided advice.
I am currently laying my dark limestone patio (going well so far) with 10mm width gaps. I would like to point it up with a light mix. I can find white cement locally but the availabilty of the right sand is the harder part. I can get yellow soft sand, kiln dried sand or silver sand from wickes (just a bit further away).
Has anyone created i lighter mortar are happy with the results or do people think a darker mix than the flags is a better way to go?
Also are the edges are riven what do people think is the best method to point? Dry, wet, mortar gun?
Cheers
