He is currently using LATICRETE MVIS adhesive mortar and LATAPOXY 310 Spot Bond materials on a large residential project in Hawthorne (south side of Brisbane).
Nice guy and he only uses high end materials as he knows they work!"

Stone Veneer Problem and Solution

Click on photos to enlarge

Stone Veneer - missing a few pieces!

Stone veneer installed with conventional "normal" Portland Cement / Sand Mortar

Jobsite mixed and bagged conventional PC/ Sand mortars usually have good compressive strength but poor or marginal bond strength.  They make poor quality bonding mortars for installing thin stone veneers.

A better choice would be a factory prepared, engineered, adhesive mortar.  A brick adhesive mortar as part of a Masonry Veneer Installation System such as LATICRETE MVIS mortars.

Our masonry veneer installation system includes sealants and a variety of products including: air and water barriers, adhesives and pointing mortars. Learn more about the entire product line, find testing reports and request brochures.
