Hello,
I've been seeking quotes for re-pointing a gable end of a terrace built around 1900. I had read online that using a lime mortar may be much more appropriate than a cement mortar or a lime/cement mix for a house of this age.
Unfortunately it is proving extremely difficult to get any quotes at all for lime mortar. Would it be OK to use a cement/lime mix or should I keep searching for more quotes?
Many thanks.
