I've always bought any materials I need from TP at Cleator Moor, but will not be using this product. Since they changed over a few months back from Blue Circle to Hanson the ready mixed mortar is nowhere near as good quality, this Hanson version of it is very hit and miss between bags as to whether it's got the correct mix of sand/cement in it. Some bags are perfect and others are very sandy and anything laid with them has to be re-done when it dries due to it crumbling.
Pre-mixed and ready to use with the addition of clean water, M4 (designation III) 1:1:6 cement:hydrated lime:sand mortar. Comprising specially graded sand, lime and admixtures this Blue Circle mortar offers convenience, with no compromise in performance or quality. Weather resistant and durable, this mortar is suitable for most general brick and block applications. Also ideal for pointing or gable ends. The mix is highly workable and cohesive, with a long board life.
Bostik Rapid Setting Cement is a versatile product that is ideal for a variety of interior and exterior installation, repair, and maintenance projects. It is particularly well-suited for the installation of sanitary fittings, drainage systems, and the upkeep of concrete floors, paths, and steps.
A Portland cement containing calcium aluminate to Extra Rapid gives rapid hardening and setting properties for repair and maintenance where rapid hardening is required, eg, setting manholes, repairs to paths and steps, Suitable for concrete, mortar, rendering and floor screeds. Extra Rapid takes foot traffic in 4-6 hours and vehicular traffic in 8-12 hours.
Mastercrete contains cement quality improver to give the following benefits compared with ordinary Portland cement: lower water demand, more cohesive mix, less tendency for water to segregate and bleed and enhanced resistance of hardened concrete or mortar to freeze/thaw attack. Mastercrete is also 39% better for the environment. Comes in a convenient weatherproof plastic bag.
