patio/ pointing
Have concrete patio with concrete pavers on top 18inx 18in 1.5 thick.
Had some come loose from freeze thaw cycle. Dont have room for a mortar bed . Removed crumled mortar , not overly bad to rip it all up.
Can I just dry lay and repoint? Was going to use type s, do I need an additive for better stick?

Thanx.

Thanx for reply, Its on my home , just trying to get a few years out of it. I am thinking the pavers are heavy enough to stay put, have them in a light sand bed. Thoro bond for the pointing? or point and bed?

thanx.
