Hi
We are renovating an old stone and have installed two new windows. I have been slowly repointing the external walls with pre made lime mortar. The joiner who installed the windows has filled the gaps between the frame and the stone opening with insulation foam. My issue is do I need to remove this before pointing or can I just cut back and make good with mortar. The foam yellow and has to be covered!
Thanks Ian
