Product information

  • Guarantee - Statutory
  • Resistant to frost
  • Ensure any loose material or debris is removed and brushed prior to application of mortar. When repairing pointing joints the depth of the joint should be twice the width. To help prevent the mixed mortar drying out too quickly in warm conditions, dampen bricks, blocks and bases before proceeding. Recommended application temperature is 5 to 25°C. NOTE: This product is pre-blended and requires no further mixing before adding water. 1) Open bucket, removing dry mortar mix bag(s). Dependent on required volume of mortar, fill plastic tub with clean water to required level using internal water mark indicators. NOTE: Refer to mix ratio table for details on expected consumption. 2) Empty contents of bag(s) and mix thoroughly until the desired consistency is achieved. 3) Once mixed evenly, apply Volden General Purpose Mortar with a trowel and/or palette knife to the prepared area. Ensure mortar is evenly distributed. 4) On completion, cover newly laid masonry with polythene sheet or wet hessian (sacking) to protect from weather hazards until fully set. Remove any excess material from the surface of bricks, paving etc. before the mortar dries. 5) Clean tools and equipment with warm soapy water immediately after use.

Easy to use for a small project

Bought this for building some brick steps in the garden. Easy to use and just enough for 8 bricks.

Versatile product, easy to mix and use

Fantastic. This requires mixing but it’s very simple and easy to do. Used it to repoint some bricks in my garden and but it’s multipurpose and versatile so could be used for many jobs. Feels high quality and durable when using and after. Packaging is ideal, as mixing and using can be done in the same bucket. value is ideal and I’ll definitely be repurchasing in the future for other jobs

Very handy General Purpose Mortar

Volton general purpose mortar is ideal for any building work, very good for layering bricks or blocks, rendering, pointing or masonry repairs. It’s very easy to use, simply fill the bucket with water to the required volume, add the powder and mix. This is a 5kg tub which is quite a lot when you’ve added the water. I used some of it it to fill in any gaps/holes I had in between the bricks. The setting time is 30 minutes and for drying it’s 24 hours. The instructions are very simple to understand and follow.

A great multi use mortar

Gifted product. A nice sized tub of mortar. Great value for money. A good option that requires mixing before use so it doesn’t expire. Can be used for lots of different projects! Hubs is happy with this!

5 star Mortar!! Easy to mix and use.

The Volden Multipurpose Mortar is as promised super easy to mix before use. I've tested this tub of 5kg as a product test, and I am really surprised how easy it is. You simply follow the instructions to avoid any mistakes, I've then used it for fixing/replacing a lot of bricks on a new build house on our work site. Easy to dispose after. Can be used for various purposes even if you're not in the trade. it absolutely was a pleasure using this because it was so easy to mix with water and then just get it right out of the bucket. 5 stars
