Bricklaying Instructions

The Mediterranean collection is a face-brick that is colored permanently after it is constructed. The coloring process does not cover up untidy brickwork.

Face Brickwork

  • Leave out faulty, dirty, cracked or heavily chipped bricks.
  • Blend bricks from 3-4 packs.

Use Off-white mortar only

  • Use only off-white or light white cement in the mortar formation.
  • Use light colored or white sands only in the mortar.

Full flush joint

  • Fully flush the joint with mortar during laying.

Clean as you go

  • Clean new brickwork as you go.
  • Do not wash out mortar spillage through weep holes and let dry on the wall. Wash the wall down thoroughly, removing resedue as you go, as the Colorbrik process will not cover this residue effectively.
  • Face brickwork will not require pressure washing acid used by brick cleaners.

Brickwork is to be constructed as per the Masonry Code of Australia AS 3700 and BCA ( Building Code of Australia). Flashings and damp proof coursing to be installed as per BCA.

 

Use only off-white or light white cement in the mortar formation
