MORTAR
Mortar colour and mortar join style can define or soften the brick. It can also make a statement or blend in. Many people forget about how much the mortar could potentially throw the colour of their brick so keep this in mind when making exterior colour choices.
INSTALLATION
Due to their natural variation in colour, finish and size, it is recommended that the bricklayer blends bricks of multiple pallets to achieve overall consistency.
