Laying a terrace — the essential rules

An outdoor terrace in cement tiles calls for a reinforced concrete slab over a bed of compacted gravel, a 1.5% fall towards the drain, and a frost-resistant C2 S2 adhesive mortar. Water-repellent grout and a sealer once cured keep the look intact over time.

How to lay a reclaimed brick terrace in 6 steps

  1. Prepare the base slab — Reinforced concrete slab over a bed of compacted gravel + geotextile membrane. 1.5% fall towards the drain. Allow 28 days of curing.
  2. Set out the layout — Chalk out the setting-out: start from the centre in a 1/2 running bond. Allow a 5 mm expansion joint every 8 linear metres.
  3. Prepare the adhesive mortar — Exterior C2 S2 adhesive mortar, frost class to EN 12004. For large formats, a U10 notched trowel minimum.
  4. Back-butter — Spread adhesive on the wall AND on the back of each tile. Essential outdoors to withstand the tensile stress of freeze/thaw.
  5. Lay and tap down — Lay, then tap with a rubber mallet. 5-10 mm spacers depending on format. Check flatness with a 2 m straightedge.
  6. Grout after 24 h — Water-repellent grout mortar for frost resistance. Brush off dry after 1 h. Seal the whole surface after 28 days of curing.
