MASON MIX (TYPE "S" - "N") REVIEW (Mike Haduck)
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
I do a review on mason mix (pre-mix) just add water, I use a quikrete product for my example and give my own opinions from my experience. All my videos are my ways and ideas, I always suggest anyone doing any type of work to consult professional help

Thank you for sharing your experience. Living in southwest New Mexico, I found myself with holes in my perimeter rock walls. I received an average work estimate to refill the rock wall holes for the sum of $1000.00 Being retired, I decided to try my hand and fill them myself with mortar "N" with a strengthening additive; armed with a bag, a trowel, gloves, a wet sponge, a chisel and stone hammer, my cost was under $70.00. I filled my rock wall holes with motar and rock found on my property. Thanks again!

Mike, I have been watching since 2014. You have helped me defeat inhibition to start and gave me the confidence to complete several outdoor projects around my house here in Canada. Very similar climate here vs. PA.. Each of the projects are still standing, working and generally looking really good. Thank-you for entertaining, and enlightening us !!

I lived next to an interior and exterior Plasterer when I was kid. I remember them counting shovelfuls of sand loading trucks, then loading up bags of lime and cement. Different colors of sand for different stucco. And heard them discussing different mixes for different jobs. Thanks Mike, always interesting!

Many years ago I managed some property in the French Quarter of New Oleans. Construction there is very controlled. I needed to tuck point a brick building and my permit said to use 12 parts sand to mortor. I didn't underrstand at the time but complied. Later I discovered this mix is used because the bouldings are old and the foundations are constantly experiencing differential settlement. The weak mix prevents spalling or otherwise cracking the brick as the building shifts about. As you say Mike, what works here doesn't work over there. Good video!!

So I have been searching for an answer to a couple of questions and it sounds like you may be able to help me. I have to repair the joints of a stone wall here in Ct. The stones appear to be mostly grabite but there are a lot of light tan comors and yellow in the wall. The original material used to fill the joints appears to be a very sandy mixture, it is yellowish in color and you can see the grains of sand. I keed to match this as closely as possible but I'm not sure how to do it properly. I have used straight type s before but it dries to a color that is still very dark grey, almost blueish. What can I do to get the color closer to that off white, tanish/yellowish beach sand like color? Can sand be mixed with pre mix type s or type n mortar?
Thanks for the info. It gave me a lot a clarity which is hard to find when you first start to look. Explaining what the letters represent was also very helpful! Cheers.

Lime mortar was used to allow masonry buildings to breathe. The lime mortar works like a wick, through capillary action, draws moisture through the walls. Portland cement found in Type N/S/O mortars become a barrier to moisture movement. Lime mortar makes a difference in certain buildings. We have 120 yr houses double brick, Lime mortar, 0 insulation in the walls, Southern Ontario

There's a big difference between hydrated lime and natural hydraulic lime. Look into this it will clear up confusion between what's sold here in America and what's being used in Europe. Only place I know to get NHL here is from limeworks in lancastor PA. Hydrated lime is more so just a workability agent in Portland based mortar. Hot lime that has been slaked is a different chemical makeup. Hydrated lime has is lime that had enough water added to then dry it into a powder. Read up on this.

I just used that same S mortar mix for a 3 story 2-flue chimney in my new house. Stacked about 50 pairs of the chimney blocks then brick up through the roof. Im up in maine. Outside on the roof i added a bit of portland to it. My thinking was stiffening it a little for freeze/thaw. I added basically 7 parts s mortar mix (which is already portland/lime/sand) and half a part portland; 14:1. And I added a large slate cap to keep water off. Unfortunately thats not to code in some areas but its fine where I am and it does a great job protecting the masonry.

@@MikeHaduck My main concern is how far down I need to take the chimney to do a proper repair. The mortar crumbles in my hand. I dressed the bricks up with a cold chisel and a hammer yesterday and took it down until the mortar was hard and seemed to be good quality(that is what made sense to me at least). Someone at some point did a little repair but they really just slapped 1/8" of new mortar on the side and called it a day.

As unusual, great video Mike. Currently doing a major restoration on a big carriage house built in 1899. The brick made then were of course pretty darn soft compared to today's brick so I've been adding sand to the Type S SpecMix. Limestone restoration of course a weaker mix is desired so I'll use Type N indoors and Type S outdoors. What I personnel gleaned from your video is that Type N is stronger than I thought. What I thought was Type N until now is actually Type O and I've personnel never seen Type O mix for sale. But as you like to say--we should have the basic masonry skill to mix our own.

Excellent post. I learned tuckpointing of fieldstone from Tom Silva the carpenter of This Old House. He adds a concrete bonding adhesive with this Type S mix. Quite a few comments harp on the old school way as being best but I haven't gotten any cracks. Still good as new. Anytime I got cracks was if I didn't wet the stones first and the mix was a bit dry. I now mist the work a few times over a 24 hour period and wet down the stones before I start tuckpointing. Looks pissa when the joints are brushed in.

Not sure if it was right but after 10 years my garage and house foundation are still standing. I was always told type S for below grade and N is only for above grade and never thought twice about it. Thanks for giving me a better understanding of the mixes.
