Joint It Simple is a paving jointing compound designed to deliver strong, lasting joints for patios, driveways, and paths, suitable for both domestic and commercial projects.

Who This Product Is For

This compound is for homeowners undertaking patio or driveway projects, professional landscapers working on residential or commercial outdoor spaces, and property maintenance teams responsible for public walkways or commercial premises.

It suits jobs requiring weed-resistant, water-permeable joints between paving slabs, including new installations and renovations where traditional sand-based jointing methods would be too time-consuming or prone to weed growth.

Key Features

• Water Permeable Formula: Allows rainwater drainage, preventing puddles and water accumulation.
• Fast Installation Method: Speeds up the jointing process, significantly reducing application time.
• No Staining on Natural Stone: Prevents discolouration on sensitive materials like sandstone or granite.
• Flexible Use for Narrow or Wide Joints: Effective on joints ranging from 3mm to 25mm, accommodating various paving styles.
• Weather-Resistant Finish: Protects joints from harsh weather conditions, maintaining a stable, weed-free surface.
• Easy Maintenance: Stores conveniently underwater for future use without hardening.

Practical Applications

Joint It Simple excels in patio paving, driveway jointing, garden paths, natural stone terraces, and public walkways. Its permeable formula allows surfaces to manage rainwater effectively, making it suitable for areas prone to heavy rainfall or pooling. It is also ideal for professional landscaping projects, home renovations, and commercial outdoor spaces.

How This Fits Into a Typical Job

This compound is used during the final stages of paving installation, after slabs have been laid and levelled. It replaces traditional sand or mortar jointing methods, providing a quicker alternative that prevents weed growth while maintaining water permeability. The application follows surface preparation and precedes the final clean-up and curing period.

Proper usage involves wetting the surface before application, sweeping the compound into joints, then re-wetting to help it settle. This systematic approach ensures the material bonds properly without staining adjacent paving surfaces.

How to Use

1. Preparation:
   • Thoroughly wet the paving surface, removing dirt or debris beforehand.
   • Use a bucket trowel to lift compound from the bucket and place it close to joints for neat application.
2. Application:
   • Sweep the compound into joints using a broom until fully filled.
3. Second Watering:
   • Soak the area again, ensuring the compound settles fully into the joints.
4. Final Sweep:
   • After 15-45 minutes, sweep away excess compound gently using a soft broom, leaving a neat finish.
5. Curing:
   • Allow the joints to harden naturally; avoid traffic in the area for at least 24 hours.

Storage and Maintenance

• Store unused compounds submerged in water within the sealed container to prevent drying out.
• Keep the product in a cool, shaded place to maintain its effectiveness.
• Clean tools and equipment immediately after use to avoid residues.
