With the growing use of permeable bedding mortars, the application of bond bridges has become even more important in ensuring the paving stays put once laid. On commercial projects where vacuum lifts are used to move larger and heavier flags, it's usually simpler to have a large tray or bath of prepared bond bridge slurry into which the underside of the flag can be dipped just prior to placing.

Floor Levellers & Preparation We offer a range of single & two-part flexible, reinforced and deep fill floor levellers, bulking concrete, primers and vapour suppressants for preparation of your subfloor prior to tiling or laying floor coverings. The Ultrascape BS7533 Mortar Paving System includes a rapid strength fine bedding concrete – EcoBed and flowable slurry paving grout Flowpoint. Ultrascape Flowpoint is a cement-based, impermeable paving grout. Flowpoint is applied as a wet slurry to joint paving slabs such as porcelain, granite, sandstone and concrete. As a rapid-set grout, Flowpoint can set within as little as 15 minutes at 20ºC and is ready to be cleaned down after just 15-30 minutes (depending on temperature). After just one hour, you can walk on the paving surfaces. Four hours and the area can receive car traffic.

Traditionally, paving and cobbles would have been laid directly onto the bedding mortar, risking loose and wobbly slabs over time, using a priming slurry such as UltraScape Pro-Prime, helps to eliminate this as the primer creates a really strong bond between the paving slabs & bedding mortar. Pro-Prime Slurry is also highly recommended when installing porcelain because of the non-porous nature of porcelain, without the use of a primer it will not bond to the mortar bed. In many cases, paving is sacrificed. It is literally smashed out and thrown away rather than wasting time trying to salvage and re-lay. When the paving involved is 15 quid per square metre patio sandstone, this might not be too much of a sacrifice, but when it's some fancy imported stone costing 200 quid or more per square metre, it makes you wonder whether using the bond bridge was such a good idea! It's also a very useful technique for ensuring elements such as wall copings , pier caps and even step treads stay put and don't become loose. Occasionally, for all sorts of reasons, paving elements that have been laid need to be taken up. It may be that they are spalled or broken, they may have been stained with oil or some other contaminant, there might be pipes, cables or ducts beneath that need attention, or they just might have been badly laid to an incorrect line or level. Whatever the reason, taking up a paving element that has been laid using a bond bridge can be extremely difficult. It's not just difficult to prise the element(s) up from the rest of the paving, it is usually all but impossible to separate the paving from the bedding, making re-use impractical.

Shelf Life: 8 months from the date of manufacture printed on the bag unopened in the above conditions. High temperatures and high humidity will reduce shelf life. Paving, Pointing & Grouting We offer a range of pointing and grouting materials for jointing your patio slabs, outdoor paving or driveway including flowable slurry grouts such as UltraScape Flowpoint, brush-in grouts like EasyJoint and gun injected mortar for fine pointing. As well as supplying paving primer, sealants and paving and driveway cleaners. The problem with the "home made" primers is that pesky word yet again: consistency. Not all SBRs are equal: some achieve what are referred to as 'cost savings' by means of simple dilution, so 100ml of a top brand might be 20-50% more effective than 100ml of a budget brand.
