Whatever patio grouting compound you choose, please read the instructions carefully and follow them fully.

If you want something that’s easy to use, the Sika FastFix All Weather Self-Setting Paving Jointing Compound doesn’t require any previous grouting knowledge. This paving joint can simply be brushed in, with the edges smoothed using either a glove or a brush. When brushed into dry joints, Bostik patio grout will cure in as little as 10 hours, forming a solid seal around concrete, stone and clay blocks, with built-in weed protection and a naturally porous finish. The product was easy to use but make sure the joints are dry and you have tarpaulins handy as product has to be kept dry for 24 hours. Sika FastFix All-Weather Self-Setting Paving and Jointing Compound is an easy to apply (by sweeping it into the gaps) resin grout that dries hard in a matter of hours.Some products, like the EASYJoint Paving Grout require the paving to be kept wet during application. Around three bags will be required to cover the average 12 square metre UK patio, though be sure to use bags with the same batch number to ensure that the colour is uniform! In the past, grouting a patio was best left to professionals, but now, thanks to the creation of pre-mixed patio grouts, it’s easier than ever to skip the middleman and do it yourself. Most of the patio grouts on the market now are made of resin rather than cement which gives them some advantages, not least of which is how you apply it.

One of the most important things to check before opening your patio grout is whether or not it needs to be applied to a wet patio. The manufacturer recommends using a garden hose or other water sprayer to make sure that the wet mixture reaches the bottom of the gaps. If you don’t like the grey colour that this grout comes in, check out Bond-It Builders Complete BDH060R Powdered Cement Dye (1 Kg). A fast-drying product that can be applied even on drizzly days, this Geo-Fix All Weather Paving Joint Compound is one of the best patio grouts if you want a slate grey finish. Once you’ve brushed the bulk of the product into the slabs, use a hose to wash any remaining grout into the cracks.It comes in a variety of grey and brown colours to match or contrast with your patio stones: Deep Grey, Charcoal, Flint, Dark Buff and Stone.
