Tarmac flexible slab
Utter waste of money. Just a bag expensive sand. Put down 1 month ago and still not set. Would definately not buy again.

Flexible slab fix
I have used this product to lay path edging (I usually use just sharp sand) and am pleased with its performance. what is not clear on the bag or online at B&Q is that this is a lime:sand mix and it will not therefore set like a cement:sand mix! there is actually no information I can find on the Tarmac website about this product but the price should tell you it is different from Lafarge Slablayer - pity about the poor information but if you use it like it is intended it will provide a good flexible base for pavings etc.

Rubbish product
Bought about 30 bags of this left to set for a week. Went out to test it. Still not set. Like sand could have made sandcastles. Anyone got any suggestions how to get it to set??????

Absolute Waste of Money
Do not buy this product. I bought 26 bags of this, followed the instructions and not one of the bags set. I tried lifting all the slabs and applying water but it still didn't set. My garden looks like Blackpool beach I may as well have just bought a bulkbag of sand.

poor product.
About as much use as loose sand,but more expensive.i would have been better off putting down sand then raking in some cement,at least that would have cured.and have been cheaper.DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY BUYING THIS.....

Complete rubbish
Don't buy this - husband spent weekend laying slabs and has not set. Waste of time just crumbles like sand!

Not a mortar - more like plain sand
Easy to use? Yes. But no instructions on how much water to use with a bag of mix. A mortar that actually sticks slabs down / together? No Appears to be just sharp sand with some small stones in it. No cement. Has not set after 48 hours

Very Misleading - Not much more than sand
Very misleading instructions on packet, does not set like a mortar like other brands of slab fixers. I ended up buying some cement to mix it with to get it to set the slabs, I might just as well have brought plain sand & cement it would have been a lot cheaper. Would not purchase again or recommend to anyone
