Good evening,

Am interested to get peoples opinions, ideas and advice on recommended products and methods for using paving units in vertical applications, e.g. to face concrete block walls and as step risers.

Would like to know what products people use for adhering natural stone, concrete and porcelain paving to concrete block walls.

I have come across 2 products during my initial research:

  • UltraScape Slipbond 'Vertical Stone and Brick Slip Adhesive' by Instarmac, and
  • 'Power Grab 'n' Bond' construction adhesive by C-Tec.

Anybody any experience with these products?

Thanks in advance.

  • The  Ultra-crete adhesive works well, as does the Larsen one, we mainly make up our own adhesive with SBR and cement, we slip the back of the stone/paving, paint some onto the walling and lace the paving on, works every time. If the unit being used is on the heavy side, we may support it until it sets.

  • SBR and cement is good. The problems start when either the pavers or the wall are not a flush fit together.
