Colored Mortar

Since mortar makes up up to 20 percent of a brick wall's surface, selecting your mortar color is just as important as selecting your brick. Mortar no longer limited to shades of white and gray! Express your creativity, enhance your home's architectural elements and make your commercial building stand out from the crowd. To create a dramatic effect or highlight brickwork details, select a contrasting mortar color. Or, for a softer silhouette, use complementing mortar and brick colors.

We carry 26 ready-made mortar colors, and can help you with an unlimited number of custom colors. Made from the finest Portland Cement, lime and approved pigments, the mortar we carry meets both BIA-MI Type N, and ASTM-C270, Type S specifications and is the only mortar type recommended by the Brick Institute of America, as well as other brick masonry experts.

Not only beautiful and cost-effective, the mortars we carry offer many other benefits:

• Strong compressive strength
• Stronger bonding strength
• Better rain penetration resistance
• Excellent workability
• No field mixing
• Predictability from batch to batch
