MY house is red brick built in 1910. The mortar used was with lime.
Any tips on matching up the mortar for when i block up a window?
i have made a mix of 5 sand, 1 cement and 1 lime and it looks dark compared to the current mortar.
i have made a mix of 4 sand and 1 lime and it looks better, however it hasn't set yet and so i am not sure i will use this method.
what about 5 sand, 1 lime, 1/2 cement?
