Cultured Stone and Mortar.

Not many people are aware of the alternatives to cultured stone today.

In order for cultured stone to stick to a surface such as a wall, chimney, or fireplace, mortar is used as an adhesive. Since mortar plays a crucial part in cultured stone installation, making mortar in the right consistency ensures that each stone stays in place, avoiding damage to property and injury.When a mortar mixture is too thick, it will crumble and dry up easily due to insufficient moisture while a thin mixture will not hold a cultured stone because it is too wet. Most of the time, getting the right consistency involves trial and error until the right consistency is attained.
