Never utilize spot-bedding or 'dot-and-dab' techniques under any circumstances; full 100% mortar support across the entire underside of every 16mm slab is essential to prevent cracking or flexing under pedestrian traffic. Because vitrified stoneware cannot absorb liquids from the bedding mix, a high-strength slurry primer must be applied to the back of every flag immediately before laying to ensure strong adhesion—learn more about this crucial installation step in our guide detailing \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pavingandslabs.co.uk\/blogs\/latest-news\/why-slurry-primer-sbr-matters-when-laying-outdoor-porcelain-slabs\"\u003ewhy slurry primer matters when laying outdoor porcelain slabs\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaintain precise 3 to 5mm joint gaps and set up a consistent drainage fall of 1 in 80 away from building structural walls.
