Inconsistent colour between batches

Mortar staining on brick faces

Clean mortar stains as soon as possible after application using a soft brush and water, or a suitable brick cleaner if necessary. Avoid excessive scrubbing.

Handle bricks carefully. Use appropriate tools and techniques during laying and cutting. Avoid dropping or dragging bricks.
