And that's how you lay 5 slabs in one day.

and that’s how to create voids under the slabs so they pop in frosts…
Full flat bed, aiming for 100% contact. primer the underside of the slab, should only need gentle taps to level it.

Anyone thinking of laying slabs, ,don't do it this way FFS, , mortar too wet they will move or sink at a later date

[karolzawislak]

Don’t furrow creates voids under the slab will pop in winter time

[verygoodboy]

Just make your ridges all in one direction, like how you would trowel tile. That way air can escape when you hammer it down and you don't get any weak spots where there are air pockets

Dont furrow it put feb in mix and tap down til comes out joints clean later

[jamie._.]

Mix looks really wet. And the bit you said feels right is wrong 😂😂😂😂.

1) Prime your slabs
2) Lay onto damp mix sharp sand and cement.

[nathanturner]

To me looks like there's not enough cement there compared to the previously laid slab but that's maybe just me

[clivetucker]

It's not cement it's morter.

Lol... Wet icing sugar... A common viscosity we're all familiar with

[simonprice]

Would have laid at least 4 flags in the time this guy finished finessing his icing sugar

It’s not cement, it’s concrete, but - You’re better off just laying them onto compacted sand.

[charliebrown]

That's not cement and your "furrowing" is a bad idea.

[charleshughes]

Theres no harm in googling how to lay patio slabs
