Don’t get stuck with the wrong mortar
Mortar is the primary binding agent used in brick, block and other masonry construction.
Mortar comes in three types – type N, S and M, each with its own strength and properties:
Type N – recommended for interior and exterior above-grade-level load-bearing walls
Type S – recommended for exterior load-bearing and foundation walls where increased strength is required
Type M – recommended for construction where high compressive strengths are required
