Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Mar 01, 2010 9:55 pm Any brickies or people with similar experiences, could you please reassure me that despite my newly applied mortar looking dark grey that it will dry off-white?!!! I am concerned my selection hasn't been followed through! Many thanks! Re: My off white mortar looks dark grey! 2Mar 01, 2010 10:05 pm Elzbeth - rest assured ours looked dark grey for a few days until it dried and it is definately off white. Same as when they lasy concrete it is always darker until it dries! 2nd build here we come in Whittlesea! https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=92617 1st Build - Henley - Cooper in Doreen!

Re: My off white mortar looks dark grey! 4Mar 02, 2010 6:42 am Thank you very much for your reassurance-it really looks like standard mortar and I was freaking out! Will keep you posted of anymore worries! Thanks again! 2 8861 Thank you. Do I use timber floorboards for stairs or do people use timber treads? Or is both the same? 6 7258 2 560 |
