I finished laying 2 courses of bricks at 20:00. How long after laying should I tidy the joints up? I have a horrible feeling I'm going to be out there at 2am!! Haha.
Depends upon the type of brick, the type of mortar and the outside temperature.
On cool days, whilst laying mebbe solid engineers, we would finish laying at say 2:30 p.m. then set out brick stacks for the next day whilst the muck goes off. It is then ready for pointing after an hour or so and we would pull em in before we leaving the site making sure to cover em with hessian sacking.
