Pavement Jointing Mortars www.nccstreetscape.co.uk “After 8 years it looks like it was jointed yesterday!” - These are the words from www.PavingExpert.com when they visited to inspect the paving refurbishment that they had last witnessed underway on the site eight years ago, when the traditional granite sett paving of the historic Hitchin Market Square in Hertfordshire, was refurbished and repointed with GftK’s vdw 850 Paving Joint Mortar. Like many old town centres and market squares, this is a very demanding environment for paving and particularly the pointing, due to multiple heavy duty loadings, all sorts of traffic exposure, plus frequent mechanical street cleaning etc. Today after 8 years, the historic market is looking great and is a valuable asset to the Town; most importantly it will also continue to do so for a good few more years yet.
