lime or cement mortar?
Until I watched Countryfile on Sunday and heard John Craven talking with
a company in Wales who make lime mortar and run courses etc., I was going to repoint my 150 year old end terrace with cement. I think I have lime mortar since it's a magnolia/yellowy colour. I need to repoint inside and outside. Inside the plaster has blown and the mortar is very crumbly. Was planning to rake out old mortar cover wall with cement render, pushing render into the joints cover with insulated plasterboard. If I need to avoid cement where can I get lime mortar. Thank you, Neil |
