Thank you so much for your time and advice today. Your a gentleman. Keep up the good work. Alan from Leeds.
You are very welcome great to talk to you Alan
Excellent lesson and advice on the importance of using slurry. Belt and braces
Glad it was helpful!
That’s never coming off john good work we’re on a sandstone project now nice to get up to date info keep up the good work and videos
Cheers bud. Maybe we should try another one
Great videos could I ask Would using this with a concrete patio slab have any benefit?
Another great video, thanks. Do you also use this product on natural sandstone/limestone and if so do you use it alongside an SBR. The lads at Whitchurch Builders said an SBR was vital for natural stone in order to prevent water penetrative up from the ground. Not sure if EasyPrime will prevent that?
Great instructions very well explained
Thank you that’s very kind of you
We use the slurry all the time brilliant gear
Hi Dean, I thinks so mate, stay safe
Great vid as always.
When you put Easy prime on the back of the slab, have you got to lay on the bed before it goes off?
thanks Steve mate, just have your bed ready prime and lay
Loving the videos. My clients have bought a 10mm porcelain tile for around their pool anti slip. Could I use SikaLatex 360 instead of SBR as its not available in France for the slurry bond.
Thanks
I am not sure Robert mate the best thing is to call the company mate
HI Johny boy, Love your videos, Whats your opinion on laying porcelain tiles with tile adhesive on a concrete base
Thanks thats so kind, really appreciate that, and yes its probaby the best way in my opinion, let me know how you get on, stay safe
Hi jonnyboy, I have really enjoyed watching your videos its gave me a good insight into what I should be doing and extra confidence in what I've done.
I'm laying 20m2 with 22mm raj sandstone slabs,I hit bad ground (compacted clay) as you covered in 1 of your videos so dug down 200-250mm deep to allow the water to get away.
My budget is getting very close, I know you recommend easy prime but I have already have some sbr.
My question is when you mix your own do you just use sbr and cement to make a soup like consistency or do you add a little water?
Also I opted for multicem over standard Portland for the bed, will that be ok for the priming slurry or would it be wise to buy a bag of Portland for the slurry.
Thank you, hopefully hear from you soon.
Hi Micheal mate so sorry for the late reply, yes this is fine to mix your own but a good tip is to clean the back of the slab before priming.
I’ve laid with and without primer slurry. Recently had to gun up a path I had laid 7years ago with no primer to make way for a new extension. Slabs were stuck solid. Had to grind the mortar from the back of the slabs on the ones I managed to get up. In the end it wasn’t worth trying to salvage them as was costing more getting the muck off them than buying new. If the mortar bed is wet enough then no need for primer. We don’t see brickies priming there bricks. But like I say I do sometimes use priming slurry if weather is really hot or mortar bed is tight due to laying over existing concrete and keeping 150mm from damp. Think theres pro and cons for both sides. Good informative video 👍
Hi dave, that is a great response as a lot makes so much sense and its the dialogue that I want to promote and we have given some positive feedback thank you and stay safe mate
Worth saying, bricks rely a lot on the weight to keep them together. Mortar is deliberately somewhat weak to allow movement, but if you went up to the top of course of bricks on a lot of houses (especially anything slightly old) you'd probably have little difficulty lifting bricks.
Plus, as we know, coping stones are forever coming loose!
Bricks have other bricks on top of them ya donut
@@Adam-zh4hm top course don’t. Ya donut….
@@MrB3ngy you don't have people repeatedly walk across the top brick of a wall do you. It's such a moronic comparison
Hi johnyboy
Love the videos great for us Diy,ers. Just wondering how long the bags of slurry last if kept sealed as am doing my project in stages at weekends
Cheers Dave
Hi Dave Thanks for watching mate it means a lot, that is a good question maybe fore Azpects them selfs, drop them an email mate or I will, stay safe
Amazing vids, thank you. How do you find the EasyPrime for coverage? I’ve read different figures? How much do you think realistically one of those tubs covers when you paint the back of sandstone slabs like you do? Thanks
Cheers bud it works well difficult to say on coverage as i do slap it on
Jonny. Your videos and the paving expert site are great free resources. What are your thoughts on using SBR on the back lightly coloured limestone? And what do you recommend for where large limestone pavers are meeting directly with lawn ie no mowing strip or edging. Haunch the mortar to finish?
Hi Dave mate, why don't we have a chat
Great videos. I've been watching all your videos, as I'm about to start our home project next week. I've been looking for an answer but I'm confused as you've used both but in separate videos. I would be grateful if you can answer please. It would be much appreciated.
Can i use SBR and priming slurry both at the same time or should I only use one of them on Indian sandstone?
Hi Nasar mate, jus use the Priming slurry keep it simple
Another great informative video, As a novice to patio laying I will be buying the pre-prepared slurry , just one question please what is an ideal ambient temperature to work on a patio for products to be workable and affective, Many thanks
Aileen why don't you give me a call
Hi mate,, great vids,, quick question,, im wanting to put a indain stone flag vertical onto a breeze block for a step,, would you use a strong mix and slurry or outdoor adhesive?? Cheers
Hi Lee sorry for the late reply but you can use Mapei Rapid set
The state of your concrete mixer is an example of your workmanship
thank you thats very kind
This has come at just the right time. Starting to lay porcelain paving within the next couple of weeks!
Brill. Keep me updated mate.
Hello John, been watching your vids,and great info.. I'm keen to use the "easy slurry but how does it compare with the Marshall's version. Another topic. Grout.
I've used the easy resin grout and at first looks great easy to apply but after 6 months I was very disappointed. It had gone from beige to black. If you try to jet wash it blows it out of the joints.so my question is what do you recommend to use.Thanks inadvance ...Paul
Hi Paul thats a big question I can honestly say I like Easygrout for many reasons
Ah mate great info , just wondering as I have a little project going on . If I'm concreting a slab onto an existing concrete and tile step should I prime the step as well as the back of the slab?
Hi James mate, yes i would Buddy.
Hi. I will lay porcelain slabs on concret base. Can I use Easy prime if i will lay slabs using Mapei Adesilex P4 or I should use different primer?
Thank you.
Hi Marcin I am sure the Primer will be ok but I will check for compatibility with Mapei
hi,
how many tubs would you need for 37m square of black limestone patio please . thank you
H Fran it just depends on the width of the joints and the beds underneath are full
Hi Johnny boy
Since making this have you found anything better. I have 70m2 of indian sandstone to lay and wondered what coverage you get and extra costs. Done loads of paving without slurry but thought I'd get with the times. Thanks
I think it is a must now bud honestly the paving is so thin it absorbs the moisture fro your laying bed
Hi i laid a porcelain patio about 18 months ago and it was fine until it froze and a few lifted took the resin grout out and they just lifted out i slurryed the backs w hen i layed them but doesnt seem to have bonded seen you stick them two blocks together could i just use that to put them back without taking concrete up i layed them on limedust cheers
give us a call
It’s Not a must on standard natural sandstone or manufactured paving.But it is on Vitrified/ceramic paving due to it being non porous.Yes this product does improve bonding to mortar but not essential.The only thing you need to remember is not to lay the paving in very hot weather otherwise the moisture in the mortar will dry out too quick.And to just use a masonry brush to wet the back of the slabs before laying.Ive been laying slabs for 18 years now trust me.
Hi Danny, Porcelain does have some porosity, jus check it out. And you are right laying in the heat can have a detrimental effect on the paving but for me a slurry is essential thats just my opinion and I been laying it over 36 years but what do I know I am still learning, be safe
Very good video and info. I am laying some porcelain slabs this week and I have some SBR to mix with the slurry but not sure what ratios??
Just get it nice and creamy bud so it sticks to the slab, stay safe mate
Greentop Landscapes & Design thanks for the reply, stay safe too. Cheers
Sbr is way to go. Much better than any of those products. Avoid nexus pro porcelain primer at all costs.
Whats wrong with Nexus
@@GreentopLandscapes primer you put on let it dry. It says slabs can be laid up to 14 days after being primed. Awful product. Sbr is much better.
Hi mate what happens if you don’t use slurry when laying your slabs?
Hi Bud well slabs are so thin now and you get rapid absorption, so the slurry ensure your slab won’t delaminate.
Can priming slurry be used on any paving materials Johnny?
Hi Thomas mate, yes it can
what did you use to make yuour own slurry?
sbr water cement and a little sharp sand
Did you just use the slurry on its own to stick the two bocks together?
Yes mate
Hi Johnny loving the vlogs , doing 20mm porcelain in my own garden soon and these tips are 👌🏼. Question though as a tiler to trade it's second nature for me to use a 10mm trowel laying porcelain in bathrooms, would a notched method on the mix work for bedding in the 20mm porcelain in garden ?
Hi Chris mate thanks for your comment its appreciated, for me I think that Porcelain is a Tile and you Tilers probably have more skill sets than landscapers when it comes to laying Porcelain as you have been working with similar units a lot longer, and yes i think a notch method would be good, be safe mate
@@GreentopLandscapes thanks Johnny
DIYer here seeking advice. I've built a step from my patio doors ready to be paved, but Im 30mm too low. Is there a maximum thickness for a bed for pavers or is it ok to build up the height with the bed? Might end up with 60mm bed, over 2"
Hi Bud, thats absolutely fine crack on
@@GreentopLandscapes excellent. Thanks for the reply 👍 I have some SBR and cement to hand, can this be used to make primer slurry? If so, what ratio?
@@IAINoodle sure bud just nice and creamy
@@GreentopLandscapes thanks very much, stay safe
@@IAINoodle cheers bud and you
Do you think this will work with 12mm porcelain outdoors
It can on Concrete
No mention of preventing reflective staining?
Sorry
How many tubs of that product would you need for a 15 metre square area?
You could mix your own Ryan for that as one tub you will have plenty left but try on a slab first to test , stay safe mate
still confused, this only applies to natural stone and porcelain slabs, not cement ("concrete"?) slabs like you'd buy in Wickes or B&Q?
seems the use of a slurry is a new idea? None of my DIY books mention its use with "traditional" paving slabs?
paving is so thin now, if your using thicker paving bridge bond is not always required
Hi can I lay porcelain slabs on crushed limestone cheers
HI Paul mate, do you mean as a Sub Base?
Hi yes and would it be a good idea to add a bit of cement to firm it up cheers
How far does a tub of slurry go
Hi Reg it just depends on how thick you put it on really.
Could porcelain slabs be laid over an existing concrete slab patio ?
Yes it can be done but it will depend on how good it is.
@@GreentopLandscapes it’s very sturdy a little bit dirty I was thinking jet wash to clean , sbr/ slurry then 5-1 mix and lay
@@rossoakley6609 Perfect
Hi ,I have Brazilian slate,and am looking for white grout,can't seem to find it anywhere,do you have any recommendations?Thanks 👍
I have to say I would not use white grout for many reasons
Thanks for getting back,why not,would it change colour maybe?
Simply because it’s outdoors it won’t stay white mate
Ok fair enough,just thought white would be a good contrast with my black tiles,thanks anyway.
Hi where do you order your Easy prime slurry from? Thanks
www.Azpects.co.uk take a look for a supplier in your area .
@@GreentopLandscapes Thanks 👍
@@shanjt1891 My Pleasure
Worth it's weight in gold
Do you think so Ben? You know laying methods change and the question is should we adapt I SUPPOSE, THANKS FOR YOUR COMMENT BEN. STAY SAFE
I wish it was Easy to find and buy this Easyprime. I'm in the west midlands and its either out of stock or not stocked in the first place...
Difficult Times at the moment Lee, stockist locater on there website
you can order it
Tried it mate, phoned round them all none have any in stock, I've emailed the company today and they've sent me a potential stockist 🤞
Everyone seems to have Pavetuf but the coverage is nowhere near as good (half)
This video is sponsored by easy prime!! 😂😂♥️
Not Really, next project I will try a different one
I've seen you lay sandstone Johnny and you've only wet the back of a slab and then laid it without any slurry.
Hi Barry you are correct but methods change and we have to adopt new methods, makes me feel better, stay safe mate
@@GreentopLandscapes
Thank you for your reply mate👍
A few more grey hairs, Jonny, but you're looking trim my man.
lol, getting there mate
We slurry absolutely everything, why wouldn’t you
Hi Tom, thanks for your input, I agree with you but many dont, and some have success, stay safe mate
im very disapointed you sold out jonny ive laid slabs for 20 years and they are not rocking
Not really Mark I am going to try a different one next project, stay safe mate
That's an ad
Weather you think its an add or not its a must to slurry a slab and I use many different products.
I’m looking to lay 20mm think outdoor tiles I’ve really well laid slabs. Would you use a outdoor tile adhesive? Thanks in advance
That will depend on what base you have put in, if its a wet pour concrete with steel I would use an adhesive
@@GreentopLandscapes what do you mean by base ?
@@tonynobrega9115 a concrete base is where you would usually use an adhesive to lay Porcelain
@@GreentopLandscapes I see I was hoping I could lay directly onto slabs as they are solid
