Hey! DIY-er here, looks like you've done a lovely job with those. What mortar mix did you use? Not sure whether sharp sand or building sand is best for laying coping stones? Cheers

Hi Joe, I use a mortar mix of 4 building sand to 1 cement mate, that’s what I’d recommend!👍🏽🧱

Great vid. I’ve seen on other forums that they wet the stone before applying. What’s your thoughts on this? Does it adhere more?
@ConstructionwithKieren3 жыл бұрын
I wouldn't of thought it would help adhere more just maybe stops the mortar from going off as quick. Cheers!

why the pointing trowel ? just because you may have a larger trowel, you don't have to load it to the max

What did you use to close the cavity? I'm doing the same project but with epdm, after gluing down the epdm on the top of the inner course should i then trim it where the cavity starts or should I run the epdm over the cavity and onto the outer course? Nice clean work by the way 👌🏽
