It is best practice to ensure that ground temperatures are greater than 3 degrees Celsius during EASYJoint installation. Once installed, freezing conditions will not impair EASYJoint All Weather Jointing Mortar.
Freezing conditions are not problematic for the EASYJoint but the water used during the application process can potentially freeze. This may cause the EASYJoint not to properly fall into the joints due to the presence of ice and potentially lead to long term problems.
EASYJoint can be installed dry but the paving must be sealed 2 - 3 days before EASYJoint application. The stone must be sealed on five sides (the top and four edges). When applying dry, EASYJoint compound must be compressed into the joints, it will not self-compact in the same way it does when applied with water.
Sensitive stone types such as limestone, granite, slate and polished sandstone must be sealed before EASYJoint application wet or dry.
When sealing the stone make sure the stone is sealed on five sides (the top and four edges).
