FAQ

Q: Why is Cemcrete’s Mortar Mix manufactured in colour? A: It is used for architectural decorative purposes. Cemcrete have manufactured a range of colours at the request of certain brick manufacturers so that the mortar compliments the various range of bricks that they manufacture. Mortar Mix assists architects in creating ‘artwork’ for buildings so as to create themes and specific vogues.

Q: Why do so many face brick/clay brick buildings have moisture related problems especially because these are sold as maintenance free bricks? A: That is because capillary movement of moisture from the ground or rain into the walls of buildings takes place. It finds the path of least resistance and generally penetrates more porous mortars between the brickwork and not the bricks. This is why Cemcrete’s Mortar Mix becomes a very viable solution to a very real problem because of its waterproofing capability.

Q: Why does my builder prefer to use a normal grey mortar mixed on site to lay the bricks? A: This is because a builders skill sets revolve around the building of houses and not the design and decorating of buildings. Coloured mortars are also more expensive than site mixed mortars because of the types of cement and pigments used to manufacture it. Coloured mortars are manufactured from imported white cement which is much more expensive than locally manufactured grey cement. The same applies to some of the pigments used in the manufacturing process, not to mention the waterproofing additives.
