What Is Mortar & Why Does It Matter?

Mortar does more than just hold bricks and stone together—it’s the foundation of your home’s durability, breathability, and longevity. The right mortar allows for natural expansion, contraction, and moisture movement, preventing cracking, decay, and long-term structural damage.

Historic homes require precisely matched mortar to ensure that any restoration work enhances rather than compromises the original masonry.
