I recently had a new window fitted as the result of a badly rotted sash frame.
On the job i noticed that some areas of mortar were crumbling away pretty badly.
You might be able to see this in the pics if you look closely at the area behind and to the left of the waste pipe.

Id like to patch these areas up before they get worse but am not sure exactly what type of mortar it is and what I need to use for the repair.
could anyone help to identify what type of mortar has been used on the brick work shown in the pics.
Also is there a ready mixed or off the shelf product out there that I could use for small repair jobs like this?
Was looking at this stuff but im not not sure if it is the exact stuff required
