Reconstec 900

Reconstec 900 is a specially formulated mortar for repointing natural stone mortar joints. It is recommended to restore joints at ground level and above grade and where de-icing salts are used during the winter. It is made of a special hydraulic cement, silica sand, river washed sand and mineral additives. This product does not include a bonding agent and is not polymer integrated.

  • High water retention (twice than that of a typical type S hydrated lime based mortar)
  • Non-shrink (even at bedding consistence for laying brick)
  • Strong bond capability
  • No curing required
  • Not a vapour barrier, completely breathable
  • Very good freeze-thaw resistance
  • Easy to use
  • Pigmented versions available

Walls Built Between 1940 and 1975

Walls built between 1940 and 1975 can be constructed from a steel structure with which we simply just attach a masonry facade. These walls are often constructed using a mortar made of masonry cement or mortars containing pure lime and Portland cement.

Walls Built From 1975 to Today

Walls built between 1975 and today are generally constructed from a steel or wooden structure to which a masonry facade is attached. These walls are often built using a mortar containing masonry cement or a pure lime and Portland cement based mortar.

Foundation Walls

Since the compressive strengths that we are looking for are usually high, we recommend the use of a mortar generally assigned to the laying of masonry elements as a repointing mortar.
