i have just pointed between my garden slabs and it has already cracked and loose after a week iused a mix of 3to 1 building sand and cement and put it in as a wet mix.it is very frustrating as most of it is still ok .should i re-do it using sharp sand instead of building sand.the patio is used for foot traffic only

Wet the cracked areas and work in the same mix.

You should heal this problem by using mixture of sharp sand and cement.By mixing it the cracks are covered up and removed from the floor.......

Hope this information helps you........
